Lawyers have started gathering for the march against alleged attempts to undermine the judiciary at the parking lot of Padang Merbok, near Parliament, since about 9am.
Seen among the crowd of mostly black and white suits were former attorney-general Tommy Thomas, former Malaysian Bar president Ambiga Sreenevasan, as well as Bar Council president Karen Cheah as the organiser of the gathering.
“Let’s see what happens,” Cheah told reporters ahead of the Walk for Judicial Independence.
“Police have said they will facilitate the gathering. When we met the district police chief on Wednesday, he said will facilitate the gathering,” she said.
Police presence is seen around Padang Merbok and Parliament, where the lawyers are expected to end their walk.
