Making their stand: Students gathering around Occupy UM’s tents and placards placed outside the student affairs department, during the group’s protest at the university’s campus. Several students also set fire to an effigy (inset) symbolising the “death of democracy on campus”.

KUALA LUMPUR: Occupy Universiti Malaya (UM) will stop for now, but warned that they will take the matter to court if the outcome of a meeting with the university’s vice-chancellor is not in their favour.

UM Islamic Students Association president Khairol Najib Hashim said vice-chancellor Prof Datuk Dr Mohd Amin Jalaludin has given an assurance that he would be meeting with the Students’ Representative Council. .
