Earsquat-Foreign object-Asshole Continuum

Bernama report 14th December

A medical expert told the Commission of Inquiry that there was no need to do ear squats to discharge foreign items inserted in the vagina or rectum.

Dr Zainab Samsuddin, an obstetrics and gynaecology specialist with the Kuala Lumpur Hospital, said that squatting alone was sufficient to eject foreign objects from the rectum and vagina and that ear squats in fact had a high probability of retaining these items.

"This is because in a squatting position the pelvic muscles relax, allowing any foreign object to be ejected. When a person stands these muscles contract, so when a ear squat is performed the muscle contracts and relaxes so this is not much use for ejecting the object," she said.

She said doing ear squats did not mean that foreign objects hidden in the rectum or vagina would be expelled from the body but in reverse, objects could be retained.

The commission also heard the testimony of Assoc Prof Dr Ashraf Mohamed Hashim, an expert in Islamic studies attached to the International Islamic University Malaysia.

From a religious point of view, Ashraf said that displaying one's "aurat" was wrong, unless it was absolutely necessary.

"Even when there is a necessity, it should not be total. The degree in which a person could be stripped is not conclusive. A person can only be stripped to a needed degree.

"Doing ear squat is allowed but only when it is necessary. Body search is also allowed by Islam but there must be reasonable suspicion that the person did indeed commit an offence," he added.

Dr Ashraf said there was no need for a person to expose her top while doing ear squats.

He said doing ear squats naked was incorrect from the religious point of view.

But Malaysia is an Islamic country and the police practices is unislamic?

How????? According to ISO 9000, the QMR must issue an NCR (Non-conformity report)!
