Should C/Insp Azilah and Cpl Sirul continue to cover their faces?

The question which has been lingering in the minds of many Malaysians is whether the police are protecting their own men or C/Insp Azilah and Cpl Sirul should be allowed to cover their faces because they are innocent until proven guilty?

Since the day Azilah and Sirul were charged, the public, unless they were in the courtroom, have not seen their faces. It is a well known fact that, without assistance from the police, the two would not be able to take all the time to completely cover their faces from public view.

This must be a privilege because other accuseds are not so lucky as they have to try all sorts of means, usually using the newspapers, to cover their faces from the intruding press.
