MNP said in their statement that it was concerning that Faisal had attempted to commit suicide while in police custody. And that such an act can only be carried out because the institutions have become lax and now lack the ability to take responsibility.

In the statement, MNP called for stronger rules to ensure justice for victims of domestic violence and the safety of those in detention. The party also called on the government to improve the institutions so that such cases do not happen again.
