The fatal police shooting of three men in Durian Tunggal in Malacca has reignited a long-running national debate about police accountability.

While investigations into the shooting are ongoing and facts are still being established, the case raises questions about whether internal probes are enough when allegations involve the police themselves.

How should Malaysia investigate deaths involving law enforcement? Astro Awani’s Melisa Idris speaks with Aliran’s UK Menon, a barrister and the CEO of Espact, and Rajesh Nagarajan, a human rights lawyer acting for the families of three men killed during the police operation in Durian Tunggal.
