Will Minister Diane Finley (right) help?
Malaysian police say they want to question A. Kulenthiran, a Malaysian gay man who was deported after his appeals to stay in Canada was denied by Immigration Minister Diane Finley.
Musa Hassan, the Southeast Asian nation’s Inspector-General of Police lambasted the failed refugee claimant in the media for alleging that he was physically and sexually abused under police detention some five years ago. Kulenthiran is reportedly in hiding after arriving in Malaysia last week.
“What was his offence (that led to his arrest)? That’s just it, if he did not commit any, how could the police arrest him?” Hassan told The Malay Mail.
His deputy, Ismail Omar, echoing the sentiment, has ordered an investigation into Kulenthiran’s claims asking police stations around the country to investigate the allegations made in Canada.
