78 SUHAKAM viii. It is recommended that a filing system containing records of the OKT be created, and for the Magistrate and prosecutor to have access to it to monitor and have the full information about an OKT, when determining a remand application; and ix. The Magistrate to require all OKT to undergo a health screening and only remand those who are fit to be detained. Royal Malaysia Police (PDRM) i. ii. iii. iv. The police should conduct thorough investigations and gather all the necessary information before any OKT is detained; The police should be provided with the latest equipment and technologies so the investigation process can be more efficient; The police should stop holding OKT in several districts and detaining them under preventive detention laws like the Prevention of Crime Act (POCA) 1959. This process is open to abuse of an OKT’s human rights. If police have evidence of a crime the OKT should be prosecuted in open court; and The investigation and detention of an OKT should be under one IPD only, even though the case may be related to other IPD. Bar Council i. ii. It is recommended that all legal practitioners brief OKT on their rights so the OKT can tell them whether their rights have been violated, before meeting the Magistrate; and It is recommended that the list of legal aid lawyers and YBGK’s address is available in every police lock-up and made known to the OKT. THE WAY FORWARD SUHAKAM will continue to protect human rights through its Complaints and Monitoring Division. The division plans to continue its audit visits to ensure that detention centres comply with human rights standards. SUHAKAM will be focusing on climate change issues by conducting capacity building sessions for its staff and investigating complaints on related matters. SUHAKAM will also organise strategic meetings of experts to address the problem of scabies at detention centres. Finally, SUHAKAM hopes that the establishment and launch of a custodial medical unit at five centralised police lock-ups will take place in 2020.
