Ex-ISA detainees Mano sues IGP, AG for RM100 mil

Former Hindraf ISA detainne M Manoharan today filed a RM100 million defamation suit against the Inspector General of Police and the Attorney-General for alleging that he had terrorism links.

The suit was filed at the Kuala Lumpur High Court this morning and named three publications as defendants as well.

Manoharan, the Kota Alam Shah assemblyperson, was detained under the Internal Security Act on Dec 13, 2007, for playing an active role in Hindraf.

Following the arrest, both IGP Musa Hassan and AG Abdul Gani Patail said that the detained Hindraf leaders - five in all - had ties with the Tamil Tigers movement from Sri Lanka.

Manoharan was released from the ISA detention in March.
