Malay Indian ISA detainee tortured in captivity

Kuala Lumpur, May 21 : The wife of a Malay Indian Internal Security Act detainee has lodged a police report against the Home Ministry, police and the Kamunting Detention Centre in Perak, claiming that her husband had been tortured.

Sharmila Uthiakumar claimed her husband Sanjeev Kumar Krishnan, 25, is now wheelchair-bound because of the torture.

In her report at the Dang Wangi police headquarters, she claimed her husband's legs and his left hand were paralysed.

This was the second report to be lodged. Sanjeev lodged the first on April 25, at the Taiping police headquarters.

Sharmila said before her husband's two-year ISA detention, he was remanded for 60 days until September 22 last year.
