Federal police recorded statements from cartoonist Amin Landak and Freedom Film Network or FFN’s co-founder Anna Har for the film Chilli Powder & Thinner.
The police had also seized their handphones, and later raided Amin’s house and FFN’s office.
FFN released Chilli Powder & Thinner on June 12, which is a short animation produced by rights group Suara Rakyat Malaysia (Suaram) based on the real-life experience of a 16-year-old teenager who was arrested and beaten by the police along with two others.
In the animation, they were shown being tied up and beaten with objects such as wooden sticks and rubber pipes, before their bodies were smeared with chilli powder and thinner.
