Gov't vs Bersih suit: Pak Samad, 5 others, want in


National laureate A Samad Said and five other Bersih 2.0 steering committee members have applied to be interveners in the government's suit against 10 of their colleagues.

NONEThe five others are Yeo Yang Poh, Hishamuddin Md Rais, Ahmad Syukri Che Razab, Subramaniam Pillay and Liaw Kok Fah.

On May 15, the federal government filed a civil suitagainst the movement's co-chairperson Ambiga Sreenevasan and nine steering committee members for RM122,000 in damages incurred during the Bersih 3.0 rally.

Samad (left), who is the other co-chairperson of the Bersih steering committee, was not included in the government's suit.

Meanwhile, one of the original 10 defendants, Haris Fathillah, who is better known as blogger-activist Haris Ibrahim, applied to strike out the suit on the grounds that he was not an organiser of the rally. 

Justice John Louis O' Hara has fixed Aug 10 for hearing of the application to be interveners, and the same date for mention of the main suit.
