Police yet to receive formal notification of Bersih's planned assembly at Parliament


KUALA LUMPUR: Police have yet to be officially notified of the planned assembly by the Coalition for Clean and Fair Election (Bersih).

City police chief Comm Datuk Allaudeen Abdul Majid, in a statement on Sunday (Feb 25), said that no notice had been given to the police as per Section 9 (1) of the Peaceful Assembly Act 2012.

He added that proceeding without a notice of assembly would be an offence under the same act.

"As such, the police advise all to not participate in any gathering that has gone against the stipulations of the law," he said.

He also said that "strict" action will be taken based on the law.

Bersih previously said that they plan to hold a gathering at Parliament on Tuesday (Feb 27) as part of their #Reformasi100peratus campaign.
