LETTER | Can the prime minister, home minister and the inspector-general of police (IGP) sleep peacefully with their hands thickly covered with the blood of Muhammad Shamil Hafiz Shapiei, 15, Mohd Hairul Nizam Tuah, 22, and Muhammad Hanafi Omar, 21, who were shot dead by the police at Glenmarie in Shah Alam, Selangor, in the most heinous way?
The cold-blooded shooting took place on Nov 13, 2010, and the High Court in Shah Alam delivered its verdict a few days ago, awarding the families over RM1.5 million in damages.
The damages, even if increased by 10-fold or even 20-fold, mean nothing as the lives of the young boys cannot be brought back. Money is not king in such cases.
