Suaram activist released, police say he was ‘anarchy group’ member http://bit.ly/1SDeuCN
…
Human rights activist Amir Abdul Hadi, who was arrested near the end of the protest rally against the Trans-Pacific Partnership Agreement (TPPA) in Kuala Lumpur, today has been released.
Police, however, have described him as an “anarchy group” member whose arrest was made to prevent untoward incidents.
According to tweets by legal rights advocacy group Lawyers for Liberty (LFL), Amir was made to undergo a urine test during his nearly two-hour arrest.
“And @amirxabdhadi is free now and we took a celebratory wefie,” LFL tweeted along with a photo of the Suara Rakyat Malaysia (Suaram) activist and others.
LFL campaign coordinator Michelle Yesudas confirmed Amir’s release on her Twitter account.
LFL also questioned why Amir had been subjected to a urine test when his alleged crime was speaking at the rally earlier today, held by various groups to pressure Putrajaya against signing the TPPA.
Amir’s arrest was the only one made at an otherwise peaceful rally that started from different points in the city and converged on Padang Merbok.

Suaram activist arrested at anti-TPPA rally http://bit.ly/1QkyRkR

An activist with human rights group Suara Rakyat Malaysia (Suaram) was arrested at the anti-TPPA rally in Kuala Lumpur today, Bersih’s Mandeep Singh said.
Amir Abdul Hadi was arrested at about 4.20pm at Jalan Tun Perak as he was heading to LRT Masjid Jamek.
Mandeep, who was with Amir when he was apprehended by police, said the arrest was made under Section 105 of the Criminal Procedure Code.
“There was no argument (with the police). Two policemen approached us, they asked for his IC and told him to go to Dang Wangi police station.”When we kept asking why, they said it was because he gave a speech and it was a directive from the top,” Mandeep told The Malaysian Insider at the end of rally.
He said Amir did not speak at the rally but was only chanting during the protest. – January 23, 2016.

Anti-TPPA rally puts foot down on Dataran Merdeka
Organisers of the anti-TPPA rally have rejected an offer from the Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL) to hold their protest at Padang Merbok.
Rally director Kamaruzaman Mohamad said that they will stick to their original plan to assemble at Dataran Merdeka, but will continue to negotiate with DBKL over the matter.
Though according to him, they will consider Padang Merbok as their protest venue if needs be.
“We will see what it is like on that day, if needs be we will go to Padang Merbok, but for now we are still staying put with our decision to hold it at Dataran Merdeka,” he told reporters at a press conference in Bangsar today.

Malaysian Insider BM Penganjur rayu DBKL benar himpunan Bantah TPPA di Dataran Merdeka http://bit.ly/1QdJh5H

Penganjur perhimpunan membantah Perjanjian Perkongsian Trans-Pasifik (TPPA) sedang merayu kepada pihak Dewan Bandaraya Kuala Lumpur (DBKL) untuk meneruskan himpunan mereka di Dataran Merdeka pada Sabtu ini walaupun permohonan awal mereka ditolak.
Kumpulan itu sudah menghantar rayuan kepada DBKL pagi ini kepada Menteri Wilayah Persekutuan Datuk Seri Tengku Adnan Tengku Mansor untuk mendapatkan kebenaran.
“Pihak DBKL sudah menolak permohonan kami tapi kami sudah menghantar rayuan kepada menteri untuk mendapatkan kebenaran mengadakan perhimpunan di Dataran Merdeka,” kata pengarah himpunan itu, Kamarulzaman Mohamad pada sidang media selepas pertemuan dengan pihak polis di Kuala Lumpur petang ini.
DBKL memberi alasan lokasi itu digazet untuk perhimpunan yang dibenarkan sahaja.Kamarulzaman, yang juga wakil daripada badan bukan kerajaan (NGO) Kongres Rakyat berkata, pertemuan dengan pihak polis hari ini berjalan dengan baik dan mereka berbincang mengenai perjalanan himpunan pada hujung minggu ini.
“Saya yakin 95% perhimpunan ini akan diteruskan seperti rancangan awal Di Dataran Merdeka.
“Setakat ini, kami masih kekal dengan lokasi sama di Dataran Merdeka,” katanya.

Bersih joins anti-TPPA protest, vows bigger crowd than Bersih 4
Bersih will join the protest against the Trans-Pacific Partnership Agreement (TPPA) at Dataran Merdeka in Kuala Lumpur on Saturday.
The chairperson of the electoral reform movement, Maria Chin Abdullah, vowed that the turnout would be bigger than Bersih 4, which saw tens of thousands taking to the streets last August.
“Bersih 2 supports the anti-TPPA protest and urges all supporters of the Bersih 1, 2, 3 and 4 rallies to join us at Dataran Merdeka on Saturday.
“Malaysians must fight against any attempt, foreign or domestic, to challenge the sovereign right of the rakyat to determine our future,” Maria said.
“This will be a much bigger crowd (than Bersih 4),” she later added.
The anti-TPPA protest, organised by NGO coalition Bantah TPPA, has already garnered support from opposition parties such as PAS and PSM, which are mobilising their members to take part.
