Lies, Lies and Lies!

Today the mainstream media reported that the friend of 15 year old Aminulrashid who was shot dead point blank by the Police gave a press conference. In that press conference, the surviving friend, Azamuddin Omar, gave his version of the shooting incident that totally contradicts the police’s version. If the police knew he would do this, he would have been hunted down and shot dead too! And what was the police version explained by IGP Musa Hassan?
According to IGP Musa, the dead boy tried to ram into the policemen, forcing the police to shoot. According to Musa, the boy is a criminal because a parang was found in the car, implying that the boy was a criminal, a fleeing felon who can be shot at will. According to Musa, a moving car is a dangerous weapon, obviously ignorant of the meaning of dangerous weapon/arm in the statute. According to Musa, he/the Police are telling the truth; there is no cover up and if the Malaysian public does not trust what he says, he will pull back the police from the streets and “confine to barracks”. Confine to barracks is a military term to indicate a boycott. That means Musa wants to boycott the public. That means Musa wants to boycott Malaysia, because under the Police Act and the Federal Constitution, it is the Police’s duty to maintain law and order in a civil times.
