151 Indonesians Shot Dead by Malaysian Police Since 2007
Jakarta Globe | October 26, 2012


Kuala Lumpur. Reacting to news that 151 Indonesians have been shot dead by 
Malaysian police in the past five years, the Indonesian Embassy in Malaysia has 
announced that it will soon question Malaysia's police force about how it 
handles criminals. 

"We will ask for clarification about their standard operational procedures," 
Suryana Sastradiredja, a spokesman for the Indonesian Embassy in Malaysia, said 
on Thursday, as quoted by the Antara news agency. 

The Star Online, a Malaysian media outlet, quoted a police report on Wednesday 
that said 298 people — 296 men and two women with ages ranging from 16 to 60 — 
have been fatally shot by police since 2007. Thirteen of them were below 20 
years old. 

The latest incident involving Indonesians took place in September when 
Malaysian police shot four Indonesians from Batam, Riau and Madura, East Java 
after a supposed robbery attempt in which police said the culprits fired back 
at them. 

Suryana added that the embassy would request the information about the 
Indonesians who have been slain by Malaysian police, such as their names, the 
time and location of the shootings and the cemetery where they were buried. 

Besides the 151 Indonesians shot and killed, 134 Malaysians, five Vietnamese, 
three Burmese, two Thais, one Nigerian, one Liberian and one person with an 
unknown nationality were gunned down by Malaysian police during the last five 
year
