‘Investigating officer told to free Dharmendran’


A Kuala Lumpur police contingent Serious Crimes Division (D9) staff officer told the High Court in Kuala Lumpur yesterday that he had ordered an investigating officer (IO) to free the suspect known as N Dharmendran earlier during the same day he died.  

Supt Yahya Abd Rahman said he had instructed ASP Mohamed Sazif Mohamed Subri of the Cheras police headquarters to free the suspect after obtaining his blood sample, and had rushed off to Putrajaya for another high profile case. 

He told Judge Kamardin Hashim that Dharmendran had been arrested with three other men on May 11 last year and held in the Kuala Lumpur lock-up where Insp Hare Krishnan was on duty as the ‘project officer’ to interrogate him.

During examination-in-chief by deputy public prosecutor (DPP) and Kuala Lumpur Prosecution Unit Head, Suhaimi Ibrahim, Supt Yahya said Insp Hare had called him about 4.25pm on May 21 and informed him that Dharmendran had collapsed in the lock-up.

Supt Yahya added that he ordered the lock-up’s officer in charge to call an ambulance and rush him to hospital.  

Supt Yahya was testifying in the trial of police officer Hare, 40, who is facing a joint murder charge with Sgt Jaffri Jaafar, 44, Cpl Mohd Nahar Abd Rahman, 45 and Cpl Haswadi Zamri Shaari, 32.

They allegedly committed the offence at the Serious Crimes Division (D9) interrogation room, Level 7, Kuala Lumpur police headquarters Jalan Hang Tuah, between 12.20pm and 2.50pm on May 21.  

Supt Yahya said when he contacted the officer again about 6pm, he was told Dharmendran had died.     

On another question by DPP Suhaimi as to why Dharmendran, 31, had been detained, the witness said it was for an attempted murder of two people with a firearm in Cheras. 

Wife: He was fine when I visited him    

Earlier in the proceedings, Dharmendran’s wife, Marry Mariay Susay, 26, told the court that her husband did have asthma but was fine when she visited him at the lock-up 10 days prior to his death.   

During re-examination by DPP Jean Sharmila Jesudason, Marry said she was initially not allowed to enter the Kuala Lumpur Hospital morgue and had to get police permission to do so.

Marry added that family members and several policemen were present when Dr Siew Sheue Feng stated that Dharmendran's post-mortem revealed that he had died of various injuries caused by blunt objects.

Marry also denied that the contents of both her police reports at the Dang Wangi station were as instructed by a lawyer named ‘Sivamalar’ for the purposes of a civil suit, when re-examined by Cpl Mohd Nahar’s lawyer Baljit Singh.

Today at 10 am, all parties, including Judge Kamardin, are scheduled to visit the lock-up where Dharmendran had been held, before Supt Yahya continues his testimony.
