民主行动党议员谴责警方因律师分享诺里兹万羁押期间死亡照片而对其采取行动。

Jelutong MP RSN Rayer criticised police for investigating lawyers of Noorizwan Zulkefly, who died in police custody.

Rayer condemned the investigation as intimidation and defended the lawyers' right to share photos alleging blunt force trauma.

He called on the Home Minister and Attorney General to intervene, stating that lawyers are empowered to protect clients' rights.

KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 22 — Jelutong Member of Parliament RSN Rayer today criticised the police for opening an investigation against lawyers representing Noorizwan Zulkefly, the 42-year-old who died while in police custody.

Rayer suggested the investigation was a form of intimidation, as he defended their right to share the photos of Noorizwan’s body which his family’s lawyers alleged showed signs of blunt force trauma, including broken ribs and severe head and spinal injuries.

“There were reports that the lawyers who shared the photos of (Noorizwan’s) post-mortem are being investigated. This is an infringement and a violation of a counsel’s right to handle any case without fear or favour,” he said at a press conference in Parliament building here.

“I take seriously police’s statement that the lawyers who shared those photos are being subject to investigation. As a lawyer myself, I’d like to state that we are legally empowered to protect the rights of anyone who comes to us for help.”

The DAP leader also urged the Home Minister Datuk Seri Saifuddin Nasution and the Attorney General to “intervene”.
