VIVAnews – The Malaysian government has denied the suspicion of organ harvest over the bodies of three Indonesian workers killed by Malaysian police in Port Dickson last month. The negation was expressed by Malaysian Minister of Home Affairs, Datuk Seri Hishammuddin Hussein.
“The claim saying that their organs have been harvested and sold is not true,” he said as quoted by a Malaysian news portal, New Straits Times, on Thursday.
Hishammuddin said that he obtained information from the Malaysian Police that such accusation is completely false. However, he added, the police will still look into the case thoroughly.
He went on to say that the delegation from Indonesia has met the Malaysian Police Chief, Inspector General Tan Sri Ismail Omar. Malaysia, said Hishammuddin, supports the Indonesian team’s of investigation to solve this case.
“We are being transparent and we hope that the Indonesian delegation will give a true report on this issue. I do not want any wrong perception built upon us, emphasizing that we're trying to hide or cover certain issues. It’s not my method and also not the method of the Malaysian government,” he confirmed.
Three Indonesian workers originated from Nusa Tenggara Barat, namely: Herman 34, Abdul Kadir Jaelani,25, and Mad Noor,28, were sent home after they died in Malaysia. In the report to the Indonesian Embassy, the Malaysian Police stated that they were killed by gunshots because the Malaysian Police thought they were going to commit robbery. They were also reported to almost attack the officers with machetes. Herman was killed by a gunshot in the head. Abdul Kadir and Mad Noor were killed by multiple gunshots.
However, their families discovered unusual condition on their bodies. There were stitches on their chest, stomach, and eyes.
On Thursday, April 26, the Indonesian Police autopsied the bodies of Herman and Abdul Kadir. Herman’s family reported that they found plastic bag in his head and his eyeballs were gone.
