The Enforcement Agency Integrity Commission (EAIC) said it viewed the passing of M Thanaseelan at the Bukit Sentosa police station lock-up in Hulu Selangor seriously following two other similar deaths in just over a month.
EAIC chairperson Yaacob Md Sam said today the commission commenced its investigation a day after Thanaseelan was found dead on Feb 25.
This followed the deaths of Soh Kai Chiok at the Bera district police headquarters in Pahang on Jan 18 and S Balamurugan at the Klang Utara district police headquarters in Selangor on Feb 8.
