Fireman Muhammad Adib - more inquests?

FMT:

Cops propose another inquest into fireman Adib’s death



Fireman Muhammad Adib Mohd Kassim died from injuries he received during a riot at the Seafield Sri Maha Mariamman temple in Subang Jaya in 2018


KUALA LUMPUR: Police have mooted another inquest to probe the death of fireman Muhammad Adib Mohd Kassim who succumbed to injuries following a riot in Subang Jaya two years ago.





Home Minister Hamzah Zainudin told the Dewan Rakyat that the proposal was made in an investigation paper which was handed to the Attorney-General’s Chambers on July 23.

Adib died at IJN from injuries he received after being despatched to the scene of a riot outside of the Seafield Sri Maha Mariamman Temple in Subang Jaya in November 2018.

In Sept 2019, the Coroner’s Court established that Adib died after he was assaulted by two or three unidentified people during the riot.

kaytee notes:

Sheer bullshit. What can be further ascertained other than 'findings' that the authority "desires".

The previous coroner inquest had in September 2019 established certain findings which have yet to be acted upon.

It's akin to saying the previous inquest was kerbau!!!

From Yahoo News:

KUALA LUMPUR, July 12 — The next-of-kin of Muhammad Adib Mohd Kassim said today they are disappointed with the Royal Malaysia Police (PDRM) and Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Abdul Hamid Bador for urging a review of the investigation into the fireman’s death.

Expressing their disappointment, the family said they had initially placed high hopes that the authorities would undertake their investigation in a determined and transparent manner to identify Adib’s killer following the Coroner’s Court’s inquest verdict last year.

“It is very disappointing because the IGP’s remark in updating the investigation status had clearly exposed the ignorance demonstrated by the IGP and PDRM towards the detailed facts of the case.

“If the IGP had read in full the grounds of judgement and statement notes while scrutinising the court’s exhibits, we are confident that the IGP will never utter such irresponsible statements.

“This shows a facetious attitude towards conducting the investigations and instead provides an excuse of stumbling into a dead end while claiming they have exhausted all means without making a genuine effort to seek justice for Adib,” they said in a statement through their lawyers.

This comes after Abdul Hamid proposed the setting-up of a review committee to dig further into the sequence of events that led to the severe injuries that killed Adib as the police did not have a strong case to charge anyone despite the inquest suggestion that Adib was the victim of a violent act.


In a September 2019 verdict, the Coroner Court had ruled that Adib’s death was due to a criminal act by two or three unidentified individuals.

  2. Actually, I support declaring the previous inquest as a mis-inquest and ordering a fresh inquest.

    The previous Coroner made some far-fetched conclusions with really dodgy or no evidence.
    The previous inquest appeared to be a conclusion made in advance, and then searching high and low for any straws to clutch at.

    Some people , of course, already wanted to declare Adib murdered way before the inquest even started, for their own agendas.
