They behaved as though they wanted to take control of the Customs Complex, says IGP
KUALA LUMPUR: Individuals who staged a protest against the implementation of the Goods and Services Tax (GST) at the Customs Complex in Kelana Jaya yesterday could face legal action for trespassing.
Inspector-General of Police Khalid Abu Bakar said the police were looking into the case for further action.
“They are trespassers, so let Selangor police look into the case and those involved first,” he told reporters.
He said this in response to a report about several individuals arrested after they trespassed into the complex yesterday morning.
“We cannot allow this situation to continue. They behaved as though they wanted to take control of the Customs Complex,” he said.
According to online media reports, dozens of people were apprehended and the police had to deploy the Federal Reserve Unit (FRU) to control the situation at the complex.
The demonstration was believed to be organised by certain parties to protest against the implementation of GST on April 1.
