Fighting for their cause: The students had been camping outside the UM entrance since Wednesday.

The group had been camping outside the UM entrance since Wednesday, getting food and drinks from people who came out to support them, said Universiti Malaya Islamic Students Associa­tion president Khairol Najib Hashim.
