Police summon four for questioning over May Day rally, PSM claims

 


Police have summoned four people for questioning over the May Day rally in Kuala Lumpur last week, according to Parti Sosialis Malaysia (PSM) deputy chairperson S Arutchelvan.

Apart from himself, he said the other three are Kohila Yanasekaran from the event’s organising committee, T Mohan Ellen from Subang PSM, and Suaram’s coordinator Wong Yan Ke.

“It is puzzling why we are called for an event which was peaceful, orderly and without any incidents,” he said in a statement today.

He said the questioning is believed to be done under the Peaceful Assembly Act 2012, and the four have agreed to have their statements recorded on May 7.

Malaysiakini has contacted the Dang Wangi police for confirmation.

The rally, which is usually held around May 1, was held on April 23 instead this year to avoid clashing with the upcoming Hari Raya Aidilfitri holidays.

About 150 people attended the march from the Central Market to the Kuala Lumpur and Selangor Chinese Assembly Hall to call for greater social security for workers.

The rally’s declaration listed 26 demands, including the RM1,500 minimum wage and abolition of the contract system. - Mkini
