Fourth suspect in custodial death claims innocence


VIDEO l 1.55 min

EXCLUSIVE Inspector S Hare Krishnan, the fourth suspect in N Dhamendran’s custodial death, had protested his innocence and claimed he was dragged into the case to “protect certain parties”.

This was revealed in a police report that Hare Krishnan made on June 1, nine days after Dhamendran’s death on May 21, and two weeks before the inspector went into hiding.

The report, obtained by Malaysiakini, claims that Hare Krishnan was not even in the police lock-up in Dang Wangi on the day Darmendran died following alleged horrific torture.

NONEDhamendran (right), 31, was found dead in a police cell 10 days after he was arrested over an alleged gunfight. The police initially claimed that he had died due to breathing difficulties. However, a post-mortem found he had suffered 52 injuries, including staples in his earlobes.

In his police report, Hare Krishnan claims to have received instruction from his superior officer on May 21 to “release and re-arrest” Darmendran while he was having lunch at a restaurant in Cheras after attending to a shooting case victim in Hospital Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia (HUKM).

The inspector said that he subsequently ordered his subordinates to do so, but later discovered that Dhamendran’s re-arrest was done using his (Hare Krishnan’s) identification without his consent.

“Officers made the arrest report using my PRS ID without my approval,” he claims in the report, which also states that he had gone back home right after lunch as he had another night raid to conduct that day.

He was notified of Dhamendran’s death at 4.30pm that day.

Hare Krishnan claims that there was also an instruction to include his name in the lock-up diary, something which was also done without his knowledge and permission.

“All the entries of me in the lock-up diary are untrue and was done to implicate me and protect certain parties,” he said.

Police confirm report

According to Hare Krishnan, he did not “touch or beat” Dharmendran that day, and claims to know who “beat him, who was there and who knew about it”.

“I only got to know about the interrogation orders (on Dhamendran) when I reached the office later in the day at 5.45pm,” he said.

Hare Krishnan’s report was lodged at the Brickfields police station at 7pm on June 1.

Although the report is filed under the Dang Wangi police station, it is instead being investigated by the Tun HS Lee police station in Kuala Lumpur.

When contacted by KiniTV, the police confirmed Hare Krishnan’s report.

However, KiniTV was told that the investigating officer who is assigned to probe the report is working for the D9 Unit, coincidentally the same unit which Hare Krishnan was working for.

Hare Krishnan is currently on the run, and the police released his photofit last Tuesday in an effort to seek public help in tracking him down.

The police have claimed that he has gone missing from duty officially since June 15.
Three other suspects - police officers Jaffri Jaafar, 44, Mohd Nahar Abd Rahman, 45, and Mohd Haswadi Zamri Shaari, 32 - were charged with the murder of Dhamendran on June 5.
