Earlier, Sin Chew Daily News reporter Tan Hoon Cheng was arrested at her home in Taman Permai in Bukit Mertajam at 8.40pm Friday.

A colleague said Tan called the office to inform them that the police had picked her up at her home at 8.30pm.

However, when several colleagues tried to call her back on her handphone some 10 minutes later, the phone had been switched off.

On Friday night more than 100 people, including politicians, members of non-governmental organisations and journalists, gathered at the Penang police contingent to stage a silent protest against Tan's arrest.
