Responding to the UN’s call to close Guantánamo, Malaysian Prime Minister Abdullah A. Badawi on 20 February 2006 demanded that the US shut down the detention centre. "It is the opinion of many people that the camp should be closed because of the photographs and stories about it, that showed it is a prison where torture is carried out", he was quoted as saying.
Malaysian human rights groups called on the Prime Minister to apply the same principle to the Kamunting Detention Centre in Malaysia, where detainees are held under the Internal Security Act (ISA) without charge or trial.
