Ministry: No complaint filed over activist Tamim Dahri’s alleged abuse in police custody

KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 28 — The Independent Police Conduct Commission (IPCC) has not received any formal complaint regarding allegations of abuse or orders to disrobe in front of other detainees involving Tamim Dahri Abdul Razak, Home Minister Datuk Seri Saifuddin Nasution said in a parliamentary written reply dated October 27.

Tamim is being investigated under Section 295 of the Penal Code for defiling a place of worship/sacred objects and religious vandalism.

“As of September 25, 2026, the IPCC has not received any complaints regarding allegations of rough treatment and orders to strip naked in front of other detainees against activist Tamim Dahri while in lockup custody,” the reply said.

“However, should there be any complaint of misconduct involving any police personnel, the IPCC will manage and handle the complaint pursuant to the provisions under Section 25 of Act 839.”

The parliamentary clarification follows previous claims regarding the activist’s treatment while in custody. The alleged incident happened in February this year, at the Gombak District Police Headquarters.

Saifuddin was responding to a question by Datuk Che Mohamad Zulkifly Jusoh (PN-Besut).

The IPCC, established under the Independent Police Conduct Commission Act 2022 [Act 839] which came into force on July 1, 2023, processes complaints of police misconduct received through various channels.

“但是，如果发生任何涉及警务人员的不当行为投诉，独立警察投诉委员会（IPCC）将根据第 839 号法令第 25 条的规定管理和处理该投诉。”

此前有报道称，该活动人士在被拘留期间遭受虐待，随后议会对此作出澄清。据称，该事件发生在今年2月，地点位于贡巴克区警察总部。

赛夫丁回应 Datuk Che Mohamad Zulkifly Jusoh (PN-Besut) 的提问。

根据 2022 年《独立警察行为委员会法》（第 839 号法案）设立的独立警察行为委员会（IPCC）于 2023 年 7 月 1 日生效，负责处理通过各种渠道收到的警察不当行为投诉。
