The 7 arrests at the Friday morning MACC protests were utterly unwarranted.
But they weren’t even the only arrests that day. From Suaram:
SUARAM has been informed that 5 activists have been arrested in relation to a protest at the Thai Embassy and handover of a memorandum entitled, “Memorandum Opposing the Brutality in Southern Thailand”.
The first 3 persons were arrested at Jalan Ampang at 2.30pm today as they were walking towards the Thai Embassy. They started off from Bangunan Tabung Haji and headed towards the Thai Embassy but as they passed by Balai Polis Jalan Tun Razak they were blocked by police and the 3 persons were arrested. The 3 persons will be brought to IPD Sentul.
Another 2 persons were arrested at Bangunan Tabung Haji at around 3.30pm. They are being brought to IPD Dang Wangi.
Those identified to be arrested in relation to the Thai Embassy protest are:
1. Lee Song Yong (DEMA Secretary of National Affairs)
2. Mohd Shafie
3. Mohd Fiqtriey al-Haqimiey @ Kecik
4. Farid Hamlut
The last I heard, these four will still detained.
Here we have a multi-ethnic group of students trying to protest violence done against Muslims in Southern Thailand, and for their trouble? Jail :|
Release them now!
Wa lao er!!!
Asking for peace also kena lock up???
Some more is none muslim also involved in muslim peaceful protestion, I was very glad to hear this if i was PM, at least border in between races and religion is ruining, we have brotherhood but the government doesn’t like to see that so all races must hate each other.
