KUANTAN: The state High Court ordered the Government, Penor Prison director and 10 prison warders to pay RM590,000 to the parents of a youth who died while under remand in 2004.
High Court judge Justice Mariana Yahya delivered the decision in chambers.
Plaintiffs Mohamed Yusof Mat Diah, 64, and his wife Rohani Mohamed, 53, filed the civil suit following the death of their son Mohd Shukri Mohamed Yusof.
The Government, pri­son director and workers were the defendants.
The prison workers were Azhar Che Wil, Teyun Thian Em, Suhaimi Nordin, Mohamad Hamdan Mohd Yaakob, Ahmad Rizal Ab Halim, Ismail@Mat Daud Ideris, Hamdan Mohamad, Mohd Rozi Abdul Hamid, Baharin Abdul Ghani and Zamarul Hafiz Shahbudin.
The plaintiffs were represented by G. Visvanathan Nair, G. Subramanian Nair and Ebrina Zubir.
Visvanathan said the court ruled that the defendants were liable for the harm suffered by Mohd Shukri.
Rohani said she was relieved that the case was finally over.
“The important thing is that justice has been served. But the money will not bring back my son.”
In May 2004, seven prison workers were charged with the murder of Mohd Shukri. Azhar was found guilty.
