No demonstrations allowed in KL

KUALA LUMPUR: Dataran Merdeka, Sogo and Masjid Jamek will be off limits to those intending to hold demonstrations tomorrow following a court order prohibiting gatherings there.The police have obtained an order from the Kuala Lumpur Magistrate’s Court banning any gatherings at the three areas for seven days after police got wind of a planned demonstration to demand action against Tan Sri Azam Baki.

Dang Wangi OCPD Asst Comm Noor Dellhan Yahaya said a group calling itself the “Arrest Azam Baki Action Committee” had planned to organise a street protest to urge the authorities to take action against the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission chief commissioner.
