Rights group says home minister's proposal in new IPCMC bill is absurd and unacceptable, defies 2005 RCI on improving police force. FMTNews Suaram

The IPCMC was proposed in 2005 to help improve the police force and address key concerns on police misconduct while safeguarding police welfare.

Suaram’s executive director Sevan Doraisamy said a truly independent IPCMC was a key element in the proposal by the 2005 Royal Commission of Inquiry intended to improve the police force and address key concerns on police misconduct while safeguarding police welfare.“The proposed bill introduced by the Pakatan Harapan administration had also undergone extensive refinement and consultation with various stakeholders,” he said in a statement today.

“By reintroducing a new IPCMC bill, the Perikatan Nasional administration will undermine the tireless effort put forward by all stakeholders involved in the process,” he said. Sevan said the police has always been a downline agency of the home ministry, and as such, any failing of the institution is the responsibility of the ministry.
