III. THE DISCOVERY OF THE WANG KELIAN MASS GRAVES AND HUMANTRAFFICKING CAMP: MALAYSIAN OFFICIALS’ TESTIMONY In 2015, the Commission received a memorandum submitted by the Bar Council of Malaysia and the Human Rights Society of Malaysia (HAKAM) requesting that it conduct an investigation focused on the authorities’ investigation of the mass graves discovered at Wang Kelian, Perlis State, Malaysia. In 2017, the Commission planned to interview the officers of the General Operations Force (GOF)—the light infantry arm of the Royal Malaysian Police, who were in charge of the posts in Wang Kelian. However, the GOF informed the Commission that it was not possible to identify who was in charge at the particular time of the incident since the rotation of the GOF occurred once per month to maintain integrity among the officers.
