MP wants action on cops after negligence ruling

The police officers found negligent in the custodial death of lorry driver P Chandran should face disciplinary action, said an opposition MP.

On Monday, the Kuala Lumpur High Court awarded RM357,500 to Chandran's wife N Selvi, 46, and daughter C Rita, 23, after finding the police officers in charge had not complied with the Lock-Up Rules 1953.
