Seorang wanita muda peserta himpunan BERSIH pada 28 April lalu mendakwa ditembak dengan gas pemedih mata dalam jarak kira-kira 10 meter tepat di pahanya.
Pang Choy Wan, 27, mendakwa polis mensasarkannya sewaktu dia berada di Jalan Yap Ah Loy di Kuala Lumpur selepas bersurai daripada himpunan itu.
"Jarak saya dan kumpulan polis hanya kira-kira 10 meter," kata Pang selepas membuat laporan polis di ibu pejabat polis daerah (IPD) Petaling Jaya pagi tadi.
Akibat tembakan itu, katanya lagi, meninggalkan kesan lebam kebiru-biruan pada pahanya.
Turut bersama beliau sewaktu tembakan itu dilepaskan, kata Pang, adalah beberapa orang lagi wanita tua dan juga lelaki tua.
Selain Pang, seorang lagi individu, Abdul Razib Abu turut membuat laporan polis di IPD sama, mendakwa "dikeroyok" kira- kira lapan hingga sepuluh anggota polis di hadapan ibu pejabat polis daerah (IPD) Dang Wangi pada hari kejadian.
Razib mendakwa kejadian berlaku selepas ditahan polis sewaktu bermotosikal melalui depan IPD itu sewaktu mahu pulang ke rumah.
"Mereka (semua) menyerbu saya serentak? Dan seorang polis dipercayai berpangkat sarjan memegang saya dari depan.
"Anggota polis yang lain bergilir-gilir memukul saya dari arah belakang badan," dakwa Abdul Razib sambil menambah beliau belum sempat dari motosikalnya ketika itu.
Dakwanya lagi, begnya turut diselongkar polis dan mendapati cermin sisi motosikalnya patah selepas dipukul.

Kepala saya ditumbuk depan balai polis...
Seorang peserta Himpunan Bersih 3.0, mendedahkan beliau dipukul sekumpulan polis di hadapan balai polis ketika dalam perjalanan pulang ke rumah selepas menyertai perhimpunan itu.
Menceritakan pengalaman ngeri di Jalan Dang Wangi pada 28 April lalu, Abdul Razib Abu, 45, berkata, pada jam 5.00 petang selepas menyaksikan keadaan tidak terkawal, beliau mengambil keputusan untuk pulang ke rumah.
Bagaimanapun, apabila mendapati kebanyakan jalan di ibu negara ditutup, beliau mengambil keputusan singgah di sebuah restoran di sekitar Jalan Masjid India untuk membeli makanan.
Menyangkakan keadaan kembali terkawal, beliau memutuskan menggunakan Jalan Dang Wangi untuk pulang ke rumahya di Semenyih.
“Kira-kira jam 7.00 malam, ketika melintasi Ibu Pejabat Polis Daerah (IPD) Dang Wangi, motosikal saya diserbu lapan hingga 12 anggota polis berpakaian seragam.
“Saya tidak diberikan arahan supaya memberhentikan motosikal. Secara tiba-tiba, saya diserbu dan dikelilingi kumpulan polis berkenaan.
“Pada masa itu, saya memakai baju Bersih 3.0 tetapi ditutup dengan baju kemeja lain. Mereka memaksa saya menanggalkan baju kemeja, saya tidak melawan dan mengikut arahan mereka.
“Selepas menanggalkannya, polis berpangkat sarjan menarik baju Bersih 3.0 dan anggota lain terus memukul saya. Mereka menumbuk saya dan mengetuk kepala tanpa henti” katanya selepas membuat laporan di IPD Petaling Jaya, pagi tadi.
Beliau diiringi Ahli Jawatankuasa Bersih 2.0, Maria Chin Abdullah dan peguam, Fadiah Nadwa Fikri.
Abdul Razib berkata, dalam keadaan bertarung nyawa, beliau merayu kepada kumpulan polis berkenaan supaya berhenti memukulnya.
Bagaimanapun, rayuan itu tidak dihiraukan, malah beliau diherdik dan dimaki dengan kata-kata kesat.
“Saya rela memberikan baju Bersih 3.0 yang saya pakai kalau itu yang mereka mahu. Saya beritahu mereka, saya dalam perjalanan pulang ke rumah. Namun, dengan tiada belas kasihan mereka memukul saya.
“Beg saya diselongkar dan dicampak ke tepi jalan. Selepas 15 minit dibelasah, saya diherdik supaya meninggalkan kawasan ini segera,” katanya yang cedera di badan dan motosikalnya rosak.
Beliau melahirkan rasa sedih dan kecewa dengan tindakan polis di luar kewarasan tanpa rasa belas ehsan.
Katanya, beliau diperlakukan seperti penjenayah besar sedangkan saya tidak melakukan apa-apa kesalahan pada ketika itu ataupun semasa perhimpunan berlangsung.
“Saya sedih bukan disebabkan saya dipukul, tetapi sedih memikirkan sikap polis yang menggangap orang awam sebagai musuh dan bertindak samseng.
“Sikap inikah yang ditunjukkan pasukan keselamatan sedangkan mereka sepatutnya membela rakyat yang teraniaya, bukan menganggap sebagai musuh demi tunduk kepada pemerintah Umno BN,” tegasnya.
Seorang lagi mangsa keganasan polis, Pang Choy Wan, 27, mendedahkan beliau ditembak gas pemedih mata di pehanya dalam jarak 10 meter.
Menurut Choy Wan, kejadian itu berlaku sewaktu dia berada di Jalan Yap Ah Loy selepas bersurai daripada himpunan. Tembakan itu menyebabkan pehanya cedera dan lebam.- keadilandaily

‘Cops beat me as I looked for food’
10 policemen beat beat me cruelly during Bersih 3.0...
A 25-year-old man, Mohd Saufi Othman,
lodged a police report today claiming that he was physically abused by
10 policemen while participating in the giant Bersih 3.0 rally in Kuala
Lumpur on April 28.
Mohd Saufi, a recent university graduate, alleged that he was beaten
by the police even though he was outside the “forbidden area” of Dataran
Merdeka, where the sit-in was supposed to be held.
The Kuala Lumpur mayor, however, obtained a court order to prevent Bersih from holding its event inside the Dataran, resulting in a massive spill-over of about 250,000 people on the streets.
Mohd Saufi (right) said that the alleged violent incident involving him and the uniformed men took place from 5.10pm to 5.30pm in front of the OCBC Bank, near Masjid Jamek.
“Due to the police beating, I sustained injuries and was bleeding on my face and nose. I was beaten on my chest with hard objects including handcuffs and a pistol,” he told reporters after lodging the report in Jalan Pattani, at the Northeast District Police Headquarters.
“My head was kicked and stepped on when I fell. Since then, I have difficulty breathing,” added Mohd Saufi, who attended the event with his parents.
Mohd Saufi, who hails from Seberang Jaya, said he had proof of the incident which is available on a YouTube recording titled ‘Bersih 3.0 Police Beat Protestors Cruelly’.
When the barricades to Dataran were breached, police fired tear gas and chemical-laced water, with several cases of violence occurring on several fronts involving the police, protesters and journalists.
Meanwhile, Zainalfaqar Yaacob, who also writes for an online news
website in Penang, claimed he was beaten by police all over his body,
except for his face.
The 29-year-old was covering the event for the state and for online news website Penang Insight along Jalan Masjid Jamek, when the incident happened in front of the OCBC Bank.
“I was beaten by about 10 police personnel when I tried to rescue Mohd Saufi from being stepped on by the group of policemen,” Zainulfaqar (left) said after lodging his report at the Jalan Pattani station.
“Except for my face, my entire body was roughed up by the police who gave me flying kicks and also made death threats,” he added.
Zainulfaqar said he could only identify three of the policemen who allegedly beat him as all of the uniformed men did not wear their identification numbers on their shirts.
He added that he made the report as he wants his rights as a victim of violence to be respected, urging the police themselves to hold a public inquest on the matter. - malaysiakini
A reporter who said he was beaten up by about eight police officers during the Bersih 3.0 rally and had to be hospitalised was called to an identification parade today - but he could not identify any assailant.
Speaking to reporters after leaving the half-hour identification parade at the Dang Wangi district police headquarters, Radzi Razak said all 20 police officers at the parade were too old, unlike those involved in assaulting him.
The reporter from theSun
said this was despite him stating in his witness statement that the
perpetrators were all "young" and having told investigating officer ASP
Kamarul Rizan after the ID parade to look for suspects below 30 years of
age.
Radzi said he would be called for another identification parade on Friday next week.
"I hope these things will end soon because it has been quite long since the reporters were harassed by the authorities. We know that the police are doing their job, but reporters are doing their job too," Radzi said.
He was accompanied by his lawyer Vijayalakshmi NR Pillai during the identification process, which started about 3.15pm.
Radzi said he does not hold any grudge against the police, but wants to ensure that reporters can do their job without interference from any party.
He said he could identify one or two of the police officers who assaulted him, and appealed for witnesses who could also assist to come forward.
Razdi said he was beaten up near Dataran Merdeka about 7pm on April 28, and was one of two reporters who were hospitalised in the aftermath of the pro-electoral reform rally.
He reported back to work on May 9, after an 11-day medical leave to treat a broken jaw and other injuries.- malaysiakini
Pemberita: Polis dalam kawat cam 'terlalu tua'
Ambiga akan cabar perintah majistret tutup Dataran...
Pengerusi Gabungan Pilihan Raya Bersih dan Adil (BERSIH), Datuk S Ambiga akan mencabar kesahihan perintah majistret yang membenarkan Dataran Merdeka ditutup pada 28 April lalu.
Menurut Ambiga, tindakan polis dan Dewan Bandaraya Kuala Lumpur (DBKL) menghalang himpunan itu diteruskan berdasarkan dua peruntukan undang-undang berbeza menimbulkan isu perundangan yang boleh dipersoal.
"Saya akan memohon untuk mencabar perintah itu kerana saya dinamakan dalam perintah itu.
"Saya akan mohon untuk mengenepikannya atau mengisytiharkannya batal dan tidak sah.
"Ramai orang (peserta BERSIH) didakwa kerana perintah itu," katanya.
Permohonan untuk mencabar keputusan tersebut akan difailkan secepat mungkin, kata Ambiga tanpa memperincikan tarikh tersebut.
Sehari sebelum himpunan BERSIH 3.0 berlangsung, Ambiga menerima satu perintah mahkamah dari Mahkamah Majistret Kuala Lumpur melarangnya, penganjur BERSIH dan orang awam dari memasuki Dataran Merdeka bermula 28 April hingga 1 Mei.
Perintah itu dipohon Ketua Polis Daerah Dang Wangi, Kuala Lumpur.
Majistret Zaki Asyraf Zubir membenarkan permohonan ex-parte itu dengan alasan BERSIH 3.0 "akan meneruskan himpunannya tanpa kelulusan dari DBKL atau memaklumkan Ketua Polis Daerah Wangi".- malaysiakini
