The court has rejected the police’s remand applications for Parti Sosialis Malaysia (PSM) members and activists protesting the demolition of homes in Kampung Papan.
Following the development, PSM deputy chairperson S Arutchelvan told Malaysiakini that the group of 10 individuals are expected to be released today after certain processing works are completed at the Klang police station.
However, any sense of reprieve was dampened by the arrest of another six people today, with those hauled up by police including PSM central committee member Chong Yee Shan, as well as Suaram documentation and monitoring coordinator Jernell Tan.
While details on the latest round of arrests remain unclear, Arutchelvan said the group are likely being held under Section 186 of the Penal Code for allegedly obstructing civil servants from doing their duty.
