Alleged police brutality: Station identified
The two-minute clip, which shocked viewers, showed two men, handcuffed, sitting on the floor with several men standing around them.
One of the men, who was standing, landed a kick on one of the suspects� head and back, resulting in one of the men bleeding from the head.
Later, the cameraman was heard shouting to the suspects to lick a puddle on the floor, possibly the suspect�s own saliva. The suspect was seen wiping the floor with a piece of cloth.
Later, a man in a police uniform appeared and cleaned up one of the suspects. The uniformed man tried to pacify the other man who had kicked the suspect earlier, when the latter tried to kick again. He managed to hit a suspect with his heel.
Following the airing of the clip, Federal police headquarters special officer, Assistant Superintendent Azizul Mohd Taharin, visited TV3 headquarters in Sri Pentas, Bandar Utama, at 10.30am yesterday.
