The families of detainees held under the Security Offences (Special Measures) Act 2012 (Sosma) at Sungai Buloh Prison have accused Home Minister Saifuddin Nasution Ismail of lying when he denied allegations of abuse against 32 individuals who recently staged a hunger strike.

Speaking at a press conference today, the wife of one of the detainees, who wished to be known as Prem Sri, 37, insisted that she had personally seen the injuries her husband sustained from being beaten.
