On the 15th of July, 2009, 30 year old former journalist Teoh Beng Hock walked into the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission’s Selangor headquarters in Shah Alam, Malaysia. He was there on investigation for suspected misuse of public funds, and was called in as a witness. However, things would take a turn when he didn't return home later that evening, and in fact, CCTV cameras showed that he never left the building. Instead, he would be discovered the next afternoon nine floors below the MACC's office, sprawled on the fifth floor balcony, in a pool of his own blood. Part 1 - We dig into Teoh Beng Hock's profile, his political involvements, and why he was called in to the MACC headquarters on that fateful day. Part 2 - We look into the curious statements put out by the MACC themselves regarding the incident, and the blowback that ensued from the tragic incident.

The Silence Behind Gwangju Inhwa School | 2005
In the summer of 2005, school teacher Jung Yu-Jin had just come back home from a long at work when he received a disturbing phone call. On the other end of the line was a plea from a desperate mother, calling to report that one of her daughter's friends had been assaulted at school, the very same one that Jung worked at - The Gwangju Inhwa for hearing-impaired students. Enraged, Jung spends the next few days reaching out to his colleagues and superiors at the school, only to be stone-walled at every turn. But what he didn't know, was that behind the silence, he was on the verge of uncovering something far more sinister. **Thank you for tuning in to another successful year of Heinous.
