Recently the National Human Rights Commission (SUHAKAM) announced that it is launching an investigation into cases of missing persons disappearance of Pastor Raymond Koh, Amri Che Mat and Pastors Joshua and Ruth Hilmy. It has been over 4 months since Pastor Raymond Koh was last seen. CCTV footage suggests that we was abducted while driving along a busy Petaling Jaya highway.

Other cases of disappearances have since arisen, namely Amri Che Mat, a Muslim social activist allegedly snatched from his car on 24 November in Perlis, and couple Pastor Joshua and Ruth Hilmy, who were also last seen in November. The Inspector-General of Police in April stated that the cases of Amri Che Mat, Pastor Joshua Hilmy and Ruth Hilmy are being investigated as missing persons and not abductions. This has not quelled speculation however.

Today we ask what SUHAKAM hopes to achieve.
