ABD MALEK HUSSIN V BORHAN HJ DAUD & ORS
The practice of torture of any kind is to be detested.This was therefore an appropriate case to award exemplary damages.The behaviour of the Defendants is inhumane,cruel and despicaple.In particular,the conduct of the then Inspector General Of Police was shameful and a disgrace.Further,the award of exemplary damages is necessary to show the abhorrence of the Court of the gross abuse of the awesome power under the ISA.On the facts and in the circumstances,an award of RM1,000,000 as exemplary damages is appropriate.
JUSTICE HISHAMUDIN MOHD YUNUS,HIGH COURT MALAYA,KUALA LUMPUR
First he riots,then he gets thrashed by the police,later sues the police in Court and WINS!!!And finally he walks away with a cool RM1,000,000.I dont mind getting picked up by the police sometime.
