00:00A widow whose husband died in a police lock-up seven years ago has urged the authorities

00:09to launch a fresh investigation into his death and punish those responsible.

00:15M. Vimaladevi said identifying the perpetrators should not pose a problem for the authorities,

00:22as M. Sehgar was under police custody at the time of his death.

00:26She claimed that someone with access to her late husband was responsible for his death

00:32and must be brought to justice.

00:34Earlier, Justice Ahmad Zahiri Ibrahim struck off an appeal brought by the prosecution related

00:40to the inquest into Sehgar's death.

00:43The appeal sought to overturn the Surabhan High Court's classification of Sehgar's death

00:48as an open verdict and to restore a coroner's misadventure finding.

00:53The High Court's ruling stands following the withdrawal of the appeal.

00:58In May, another appeals court panel dismissed the government's appeal against an award of

01:02RM450,000 in damages made in favour of Vimala and her son, Tusa Taren, in a negligent suit.

01:11The appeals court affirmed a finding that the defendants were negligent for failing

01:15to ensure Sehgar's safety while in custody.
