If you read news recently, the hot news most of us are discussing is the corrosive liquid splashing attacks that happen in Klang Valley and Seremban.

Details of the attack is here: http://mmail.com.my/content/67775-my-head-was-fire/

And the main point is the culprit is still free on road as police having difficulties to nab the mad-man. However, police just released the photofit of the corrosive liquid splasher.


The photofit was produced based on information from a witness of a possible attempt by the splasher in Jalan Desa Pandan yesterday and other victims.

The suspect wore a full-faced black helmet and was clad in a blue jacket and wore gloves.

He is believed to be in his 30s and was on the motorcycle that had a false registration number.

Those acid splashers have been known to work alone and in pairs, have so far maintained the same method of operation by riding a motorcycle and surprising the victims from behind and splashing corrosive liquid into their faces and so far 22 cases have been reported.

Those with information on the splasher can call the police at the Rakan Cop hotline (03-2115 9999) or SMS POLISKL at 32728.

Public should help to keep lookout on the suspects with smallest details: type of helmet, motorcycle or even the type of clothing they are wearing. And especially women, are to look out for motorcyclists behaving suspiciously.

How the assaults were carried out


Motorcycle
Police have identified the way the serial acid splashers go on their sadistic spree.

Description Of Splashers
● Dark-skinned or tanned complexion, usually clad in dark clothing, full-face helmets and on motorcycle.

Time Of Attack
● Monday to Friday — the attacks take place during the day.

● Saturday and Sunday — the attackers prey on their victims in the late afternoon, evening and at night.

Areas Of Attack
● Places with heavy traffic and constant movement of people.

● This makes it easier for the splashers to target their victims.

Mode Of Transport
● Motorcycles — the attackers are said to have used a Honda EX-5 or a Yamaha of a similar size

Knowledge Of Roads
● The culprits have good knowledge of the areas where they pounce on their victims. The locations have different roads leading in and out of the areas.

● The splashers have targetted mostly women and children.

● Twenty-two people have fallen victim to their attacks to date.


Where the 'splasher' struck


The above details was resourced from Malay Mail and The Star.

The Malaysian Bar Council's publication titled Police and Your Basic Rights is one good source for young people to get information on what to do when stopped by the police.

Here are some of the information provided:


> When you cannot be arrested:
The police cannot arrest you just because you are a potential witness and want to take a statement from you (112/Witness Statement).

> For more information about your rights when approached by the police, have a look at the Malaysian Bar's booklet titled “Police and Your Basic Rights”, also known as the “Red Book” available from its website at http://www.malaysianbar.org.my./

Metzelder says: Above information is important for the public to know what is their rights. Below I further explain the arguments of police using firearms.

 WHEN should the police use firearms when dealing with suspects? What is the standard operating procedure on this?

The answers to these questions are unfortunately classified information under the Inspector General of Police's Standing Orders.

But some light may be shed on arrests and the use of firearms based on several documents, says Edmund Bon of Malaysian Bar's constitutional law committee chair.

Regarding the use of firearms, Bon makes reference to Article 9 of the Basic Principles on the Use of Force and Firearms by Law Enforcement Officials from the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights which has been adopted by Malaysia.

It reads that “law enforcement officials shall not use firearms against persons except in self-defence or defence of others against the imminent threat of death or serious injury ....”

It may be used to prevent a serious crime involving “grave threat to life” and to arrest a person presenting such a danger and resisting their authority, or to prevent his or her escape.

It also states that this measure is to be taken “only when less extreme means are insufficient to achieve these objectives”.

In any event, intentional lethal use of firearms may only be made when strictly unavoidable in order to protect life, it adds.

He says that in cases where a suspect in a vehicle refuses to stop, and as a result is posing a threat to the public, the use of firearms can be allowed.

“The use of firearms has to be the last resort, so the person must have tried all means necessary to apprehend and stop the suspect,” he says, emphasising that firearms should only be used in extreme circumstances.

As to arrests by the police, according to S15 of the Criminal Procedure Code (CPC), anyone forcibly resisting efforts to arrest him or attempts to evade the arrest, the police officers may use all means necessary to effect the arrest.

S15 (3) states that “Nothing in this section gives a right to cause the death of a person who is not accused of an offence punishable with death or with imprisonment for life.”

Says Bon, “There must be clear grounds for arrest. If the person is in a car, for example, the car should be known to have been stolen or belongs to a known suspect. Alternatively, they have seen the person and identified him as a known suspect, or if the person starts shooting from the vehicle.”

As such the concept of using fire arms has been explained, isn't the police made mistake when they grounded and take life of late Aminulrasyid. I said he is wrong to drive car without license, which can be charged in court that at most would be fined or jailed. But death sentence which was not sentenced by Justice in court is just to much for him. He is definitely not a criminal, only traffic offender stands in.

It is further illogical to say Aminulrasyid reversed his car to ramp the police (endangering lives of police) as the fact is he is already shot died.

Police should not in the first place open fire arms when there is not substantial need and neither procedure allowed.

Besides that, IGP attitude not to apologise to Aminul's family is very regrettable as he reasons that it may have legal implications. Now they should drop the claims and label of Aminulrasyid is a robber or criminal after repeatedly demanded by family and public.
