MP, SA and DAP Members Arrested While Candlelight Vigil

MP, SA and DAP Members Arrested While Candlelight Vigil


Black is getting black, and dark is getting darkness.

DAPSY Seputeh was organised a Candlelight Vigil for Perak Politic Crisis on 19 May, 8pm, downstair of DAP Seputeh office.
The event was plan by me and Seputeh MP Teresa Kok, Serdang MP Teo Nie Ching were attend the function as well.

Police warned me not to on the function at 7pm. I confirmed the function is peaceful and only candlelight vigil at open space downstair of office. However police do not tolerate our request.

Our function still on at 8pm, and we were surrounded by police. It was surprise the attendance of police force is more then attendance of candlelight vigil.

While Teresa spoke to police, our candlelight vigil starts. OCBD requested us to leave within 10 second however we don't see any wrong with candlelight vigil. Police starts to take action after 10 sec and I was bring to police car as well.

When I brought to police car, the policeman who catch me gone and I was alone. The other policeman stand front of lockup lorry asked me who catch me and I was quiet. He ask the policemen around who catch me however no one answer. The policeman push me away from police lockup lorry and say: "You jangan jadi hero".

I was "escaped" and I follow the crowd to Police Station Brickfield. Lim Kit Siang, Tan Seng Giaw, Tan Kok Wai, Fong Gui Lun, Teresa Kok, Lim Lip Eng, Tony Pua, Lau Weng San, Charles Santiago and Antony Loke came and show support as well.

The police in Police Station Brickfield was try to use FRU against supporters who gather at Brickfield Station.

11 people were arrested, 4 female detainees were sent to Police Station Jln Traveles and 7 guy detainess were sent to Police Station Pantai.

All of the detainees were released before 4am.

士布爹区社青团副团长郑康怀向《独立新闻在线》透露,上述烛光会虽然原定晚上八时举行,但是警方在傍晚6时30分左右就到场拍照取证;傍晚七时进入办公室与他见面,要他取消这场活动。
郑康怀说,晚上八时左右,士布爹区国会议员兼雪兰莪州资深行政议员郭素沁、李映霞及张念群依时到场;8时20分,郭素沁正与警方交涉时,李映霞及张念群等人开始点蜡烛,警方见状后马上勒令众人解散,跟着便逮捕了七男四女共11人,包括李映霞及张念群。

Malaysiakini (English):
(Teresa) Kok pointed out that the protest was taking place on private property and therefore the police had no jurisdiction over the gathering.
The officer refused to budge and once again ordered the crowd to disperse.
At this juncture, (Jenice) Lee told the protesters to sit on the ground. The police officer then proceeded to count from one to 10, and when the crowd remained unmoved, they were arrested.
Teo (Nie Ching) had however tried to grab onto a pillar resulting in her being forcefully dragged away by a policewoman.

But what happened was ridiculous.

More info and photos will be updated later.

More to posting up....
