Bernama reported that 16 men had been arrested around Shah Alam, Gombak, Klang North and the latest arrest involving 8 people who were arrested in Taman Kosas in Ampang.
In total, 16 men believed to be inciting the public to join the illegal assembly that will be held on 9th July by Bersih.
All those arrested were detained under Section 27 (5) of the Police Act for organising an illegal assembly, were later released on police bail, Datuk Tun Hisan Tun Hamzah, Selangor police chief informed.
Reporters were informed that among the incitements were wearing and selling yellow T-shirts.
The public had been warned not to attend the illegal assembly as it would jeopardise the safety of the public and will cause traffic congestion.
Meanwhile, the illegal assembly planned by Bersih this 9th July had raised concerns of the Home Minister, Datuk Seri Hishammuddin Tun Hussein who said that it has a hidden agenda.
He also said that the police had been instructed to discharge their duties professionally since the development was evident of late and could jeopardise peace and lead to chaos in the country.
Throughout the country, 30 individuals had been arrested over the planned assembly in Penang and Johor.
On Saturday, 31 people were arrested after Penang police found 28 T-shirts with images of the banned PKM leaders and PSM and flyers that called on the people to bring change to national politics on a bus they were travelling in.
PSM general secretary S. Arutchelvan clarified that their Udahlah tu...Bersaralah!! flyers were meant for their roadshow as a run up for the coming election and had nothing to do with Bersih 2.0.
I don't believe a damn thing that is uttered by that pariah because even the Malay saying said "Jika jumpa keling dan ular, jangan dipukul ular, pukul keling tu dulu".
If the saying does not have some truths in it due to the past experiences of those who had been stabbed in the back by a pariah, surely it would not arise.
