[UPDATED VERSION] Enough of context by Jeff, Mack and Kit of the police abuse towards the Chinese who was being forced to strip naked.
Apparently, this had went overboard and being liken to the Abu Ghraib prison abuse, which explain the severity level of this shameful event in Malaysia history.
I’ve only one BIG QUESTION to ask: Let’s say if you’re caught in China, do you think a tourist/visitor like you deserved to be treated in such a way?
Please, by all means think hard if you’re to question my patriotism towards this country.

Maxis SMS alert at 5.21pm.
PM has directed Deputy IGP to have video footage of naked woman woman doing ear squats investigated thoroughly and has vowed that there will be no cover-up.
This has somehow reminded me of this.

We were detained by the police with other lady Chinese nationals from the 3rd of November 2005 (Thursday), about 11pm nearing to Sungai Buloh. At that time we were in a car and the police was holding a road block.
Police detained us with the cause of suspicion of fake passport. We were sent to the Sungai Buloh police station. At about 6 am 4th November 2005. We were sent to the Petaling Jaya Police Station and we were imprison in the lock up in there.
Before we were sent to our cells, we were told to show all our belongings in our hand bag. A police men and a police woman who were at the counter recorded the inventory of our hand bag and asked $50 RM from both yu xue zhen and Gu xiu hua and we gave it to them. At that time, Wu Xia Hua only had $3 RM in her hand bag. She was also force to give it to the above mentioned police officers. The Police women then shared $10 of our money to each of the officers in the station. We were force to give the money because it was demanded from the police officer and we were afraid of them.
After that, two police woman ask us to take off our clothes until we were naked in a room before going into the lock up one by one. The police women ask us to stand and squat five times when we were naked. When it was Yu Xue Zhen;s turn, she felt embarrass from striping and move her back to face the police women. She was slapped by the police women on the face. When Yu Xue Zhen was taking her clothes off. A police man was peeping at her and she screamed. After that the room door was immediately closed. After the body check, were we allowed to put our clothes back on and enter the lock up.
On the evening of 5th November 2005. 5 chinese nationals women including us and 2 indonesian women was brought to the Sungai Buloh police station to record our statement. When we return to the Petaling Jaya Police station. We were again asked to take off our clothes and repeat the procedude. After that all the Chinese women were not allowed to wear back our bras. Only the women of other nationalities were allowed to wear back their bras.
After we recorded out statement on the 5th of November at the Sungai Buloh Police Station, a police man did a hand gesture to Gu Xiu Hua that meant she had big breast.
At about 7pm 5th November, Yu Xue Zhen wrap her body with a big towel and entered the bath room in the lock up. She notive a police man staring at her from outside the lock up’s door. This was witness by Gu Xiu Hua. Gu Xiu Hua remembers Yu Xue Zhen immediately went into the bath room and close the door.
On the first day of our detention period. Yu Xue Zhen’s husband brought two bags that contained clothes, 3 towels, ladies towel, perfume, tooth brush and tooth paste to the Petaling Jaya Police Station to be given to Yu Xue Zhen, but the police officer on duty did not send it to her. On the 5th of November when Yu Xue Zhen was sent to the Sungai Buloh Police Station to record her statement. She was told by her husband that he sent those items to her on the day before. When Yu Xue Zhen was sent back to the Petaling Jaya Police Office, she asked for those items that was sent by her husband to the police, and she found a few expensive clothes, towel, tooth brush, tooth paste, perfume and ladies towel missing. And only two T shirt, a shirt, jeans and long pants was left behind.
We were imprisoned in the lock up for 5 days, only released by the police on the 7th November 2005 when the immigration officer in Putrajaya have validated that our passport was real. Before we left the Petaling Jaya Police Station, around 4 pm, the same police men who did the same hand gesture that praise the size of Gu Xia Hua’s breast. That police man asked Gu Xiu Hua to come to him and did another gesture to ask Gu Xiu Hua to call him. But Gu Xiu Hua did not dare go near him.
We are not happy about the imprisonment and our experience because we were holding valid passport and we have entered many times through the years. We have never gone against the Malaysian law and we should not have been detained and imprisoned in the police lock up.
It has also been alleged through press release by the Chinese woman that the police officer at the road block indicated they wanted a $500 rm bribe. On refusing the Chinese ladies were brought it for “suspicion” of owning fake passports. They were also not given proper drinking, instead they drank straight from the tap.
This is the latest on the issue.

It is against Islamic teachings. The culprit police woman must be charged with criminal breach of trust and wanton abuse!
I have wrote at length about what I as a Muslim feel about this gross injustice and humiliation taking place in our PDRM’s lockup!
We all know that many similar incidents and even rapes have taken place in both the police lock ups and our prisons.
This leak has exposed this blatant abuse taking place behind the iron curtain. Malaysia needs to put its own house in order before barking about atrocities taking place elsewhere.
As a Muslim, I feel so angry and disgusted with the malay police woman’s abuse of the prisoner or detainee!
I join you in protesting against this tragedy!
Nowadays, every news I hear about Malaysia over the radio in Shanghai is a negative one…
I am really sadden by this event. And this time, it is caught on tape!
Apparently, Malaysia has always been in the limelight for the wrong reason.
Everything happend for a reason.
Now I probably get some hints on why tourist arrivals from China drops.
Malaysia boleh??
Speaking of PDRM, let just see what the government will do about this? Besides, as a sideline, what happened to the IGP son who is caught selling the pasar ramadan stalls?
JL, to answer your question, when the media hype is over, so do the case.
I hope you get what I mean. ;-)
Well, this country has no hope at all anymore…
I’m just so dissapointed with almost every aspect of the country…
We could do so much better if the corruption weren’t so serious….
Its really the cancer of this country… Why don’t the government realise it?
Or they’re happy with the current situation, because they have everything in control?
This expose has finally uncovered the corrupt and ruthless sadistic transgressions of the Malaysian police department upon detainees who have yet to be found guilty of whatever they were accused of.
Corruption is the root cause of this treachery [DELETED by SK - The word is too harsh!]
The police conveniently will say that the detainee committed suicide or was assaulted by the other detainees.NGO’s have always been highlighting this matter but as we all know, such demands usually fall on deaf ears.
The IGP needs to apologise to the nation, sack the [DELETED by SK - The word is too harsh.] responsible and haul them up to face charges in court! [DELETED by SK - The word is too harsh!]
Their faces must be published in the newspapers to shame them and they must be made to apologise publicly to the victims and also to the Chinese government!
The victims must also be compensated financially and the PDRM must really put an end to all this bloody nonsense taking place in the police stations nationwide!
I am so angry . [DELETED by SK - Please, don't defame my blog in such a way, I can't afford any shit out of this.]
They have shamed us Muslims and also the nation with their behaviour.
I don’t think I can respect the PDRM anymore! Malaysians will never respect the police force anymore after this!
Damn the [DELETED by SK - The word is too harsh!]
As a Malaysian…..i feel shame to the police force….

Why is the Deputy IGP behaving so arrogantly in this shameful case? Is he making the stand on behalf of our PM and the whole govt? That Malaysia can very well do what it likes to its people and that of foreigners in our country and no country, least of all China, has a right to demand anything from us. What human rights are these people talking about anyway? This is BOLEHLAND.
