PETALING JAYA: Pressure is building on the task force set up to investigate the disappearance of pastor Raymond Koh and activist Amri Che Mat with a dozen more organisations objecting to its membership.
Otherwise, it would be seen as a “whitewashing force”, set up to hide rather than uncover the truth behind the disappearance of the duo, they said. “It is not a case of pleasing everyone but of prioritising justice for the families of the victims and for those seeking the truth and genuine closure in this case,” their statement added.“Justice for the victims and their family members has been delayed for many years due to the previous government’s apathy.
“Suhakam was faced with an identical conundrum in the early phase of its inquiry but it was established that the case had no factual correlation to the disappearance,” they said. In a separate statement, the Society for the Promotion of Human Rights said it was astonished that Muhyiddin had disregarded the basic principle of avoiding conflict of interest when he approved the list of task force members.
They said the task force must include one or more members of civil society to ensure transparency, adding that failure to revamp its composition would result in the loss of public trust.
