Electoral reform advocacy group Bersih has vowed to continue their planned sit-in protest tomorrow, but has pledged to accede to a court order banning them from gathering at the iconic Dataran Merdeka.
“We will not breach the order... We will gather at our gathering points which are not mentioned in the order (banning the group and members of the public), and move as close to the Dataran as possible.
“This is in the hope of the goodwill of the Kuala Lumpur City Hall to allow us to use the Dataran Merdeka anyway and not enforce the court order,” said its co-chairperson S Ambiga (second from left in photo) at a press conference in Kuala Lumpur today.
Ambiga was served with a court order at 12.08pm today banning her person, the group and the general public from Dataran Mereka.
Issued by magistrate Zaki Asyraf Zubir of the Kuala Lumpur magistrate’s court, the order was applied for by the Dang Wangi OCPD.
