Robbed by Authorities / Abusing Powers




Friday night, a staff member of the student affair department (HEP) in Universiti Putera Malaysia (UPM) in Serdang raided the hostel room of a first-year student, who is the member of a particular student grouping.

He was interrogated until 1am, and his laptop, handphone, MP4 player, 2 pendrives, leaflets and personal documents were confiscated.

The HEP staff, commanded by a UPM personnel identified as Jamali of the Unit Tugas Khas, left without giving any written acknowledgment of the items confiscated.

The following morning, other students went to the HEP office and demanded that the university's personnel give the raided student a written acknowledgment.

From the video-clip, it was evident that the personnel evaded the demand, resorted to coercive language and tried to get away in a car. He was, however, prevented by a human blockade of students.
