Ali Abdul Jalil is a student activist arrested under multiple charges of Sedition for allegedly insulting the Malaysian monarchy.
He was arrested on 8 Sept, released later that day after posting bail and immediately rearrested on further charges of Sedition. He spent 15 days in Sungai Buloh prison where he was allegedly abused by the authorities – punched, slapped and hit with a baton and rubber pipe in an empty room.
He was released on bail on 23 Sept, promptly rearrested and sent to Johor Bahru Selatan prison, where he is currently under detention. He has been in jail without trial for 20 days.
