Rakyat@work at the PJ main police station tells me that the Investigating Officer there has told all those arrested that no charges will be filed against them - though their details will be on file in case they commit future offences.

About half of those concerned are now going off to celebrate. Others have gone straight away to check out the Raja Petra criminal defamation trial, which begins today!

Meanwhile, Rakyat@work gives us a more detailed report of the Abolish ISA vigil last night:

Rain, rain, and more rain. Refreshing throughout the evening.

 

Those present didn’t seem to mind the inconvenience. We had about 200-odd people turning up. If not for the rain, I’m sure we would have witnessed a record-breaking attendance.

The good news was that we had about 15 new-comers. More youngster are standing up to be counted.

PJ city councillor Richard Yeoh started the ball rolling by reminding the crowd about the conditions for this event.

Next was Haris, who thanked everyone for coming. He informed us that Norlaila Othman, an activist with the Abolish ISA Movement’s Family Support Group, was unable to be with us tonight due to urgent matters she had to attend to.

This time around, the events were mostly open to the public to share their reasons for attending these vigils. At least four to six people came forward and these were some of their messages:

Someone file A police Report then for Disruption of a non-criminal event at the Vigil then. Also file for a restraining order against all Police stepping within 500 yards away from all future Vigils.

The 2007 Malaysia population is 27,730,000.
Of that, Sarawak has 2,500,000 people, Sabah: 3,387,880, and Labuan:85,000.
That leaves 21,757,120 people in Malaya.
So, out of that almost 22 million Malayans, only about 200 people (0.0033%) turned up for the vigil?
And yet some Malayans tell us Sabahans and Sarawakians to stand united? smilies/wink.gif

Who do I complain to if I have a complain against the police? Definitely not the police. They have been arresting all the candlelight vigilers, but had left off the demonstration carried out by Prowaris. There was even an assault on a wowan. Someone even jumped onto the bonnet of her car and dented it. I have not heard of any arrest. We all know that this is all double standard practised by the umno-controlled police. Therefore I'm asking again. Who do we bring our complaint to?
