Where Are You Selvach?



The memorandum of protest to the IGP on the 30 October 2010 was to demand to know the whereabout of Selvach Santhiran.

The peple want his immediate release and whatever crime he had committed should be charged in open court.

A key witness to the death of Gunasegaran in police custody, Selvach had become a victim of circumstances.

Despite a wet Saturday morning, the turn out from the various political parties, NGOs, Members of Parliament and concerned citizens were a unique sight




The police cannot be permitted to continue to operate in an environment of impunity but as this tragic episode has explicitly illustrated, the police has just sent a strong message that they can act as they please with no regard to the rule of law, police professionalism and the law and procedure governing their conduct.
