Almost 2,000 in anti-ISA gathering
KUALA LUMPUR: Almost 2,000 people from non-governmental organisations and opposition parties took part in a peaceful gathering near Puduraya calling on the Government to abolish the Internal Security Act (ISA).
They started gathering there at 8pm last night and dispersed one hour later.
Dang Wangi police chief Asst Comm Zulkarnain Abdul Rahman said police had received information that a gathering was scheduled to be held at Dataran Merdeka.
“But we had placed our people at various roads leading to Dataran Merdeka and this had caused the group to change the location of the gathering to an area near Puduraya.
“No untoward incident happened during the gathering and no arrests were made, but it added to the traffic congestion there,” he said. - Bernama
