ARREST OF 11 PEOPLE AND 6 YRS OLD UTHAYA KUMAR`S NIECE VWAISHNNAVI WAYTHA MOORTHY IS UNLAWFUL AND A CRUEL ACT


In regards to the matter above, i condemn the arrest of the 11 people including a six year old girl who had gathered in Purtaraja to submit an Deepavali appeal for the release of all the ISA detainees to the Prime Minister.

This Act again is an barbaric and unlawful action taken by Polis Diraja Malaysia under the instruction of the UMNO led Government in Malaysia.

This little girl was there on a sign of love for the Prime Minister, seeking the release of her uncle Mr Uthaya Kumar and all the detainees of this cruel and unjust Internal Security Act.

She even extended and invitation to the PM for him to come to her house on Deepavali.

All the other 11 people including the Wife of Waytha Moorthy who were there in a very peaceful manner for the same intentions was also arrested.

This arrest is not only an insult to the Indians but to all Malaysians whom belief in Human Rights and respects the Federal Constitution.

The arrest is against the World Human Rights Standards and Article 10 of the Federal Constitution which guarantees freedom of assembly to all.

It is such a shame for Malaysia to be in the United Nationals Human Rights Council when the Ruling UMNO Government can oppressed it`s nation with their ruling power.

A 6 year child is being detained for an so called illegal assembly.

But when contacted, Kuala Lumpur Police Chief Muhammad Sabtu Osman clarifies that she is not arrested but under her Mother care.

How can a 6 year old girl be under her Mother`s care in Lock up ?

Would it not effect the child's Mind and her growing up process.

How would she feel being surrounded by bars and police personals ?

She was only there to submit an appeal and invitation to the PM but now see`s her self and her Mother detained.

Is the UMNO government trying to shut the mouths of it`s nation and blind them of their rights ?

All 11 of them are being investigated under the Societies Act. The ban on HINDRAF it self is an illegal action taken by the Home Ministry.

Article 10 of the federal Constitution provides rights to form an association.

The action taken by Home Minister Syed Hamid Albar, again is an violation to the federal constitution and a illegal move.

Who should be arrested now ?

Should Syed Hamid Albar be charged in court for violating the Constitution ?

Should the Police be charged in Court for disrupting a peaceful assembly ?

Where is the Law in this country ?

The UMNO government, Police and Ministers are them self's breaking the law.

But why are they putting up a drama in the eyes of the world.

The home minister had recently said that he belief, he had the support of the Indian community on the Banning of HINDRAF.

Is the Home Ministers deaf of all the criticism on that issue by the elected representative in parliament.

HINDRAF represent the Hindu and Indian Community in Malaysia.

They had fought for the demolitions of the Holy temples and for the rights of Indians in Malaysia.

What wrong has HINDRAF done that it deserve to be ban ?

Is UMNO shaken of the HINDRAF movement which reveals the cruelty and evilness of the ruling government.

What more will the ruling Government do to oppressed it`s nation and hide
all it`s wrong doings.

The ISA ? The police Act ? The Media and Publication Act ?

Enough is Enough!! The cruelty has to stop.

Justice needs to prevail it`s self.

All the culprits needs to be brought to court and Evil needs to be defeated.

This is my beloved country and i want to see change upon this country.

The younger generation does not tolerate racial outburst and wrongdoings of the government.

The Internal Security Act must be abolished. The heroes of this country must be freed.

I, with much disappointment seek and appeal for the release of all the 11 people whom were arrested in Putrajaya.

How much more does this nation need to go through? Have UMNO not learned enough from the previous General Elections?

Is Malaysia a police state ? Released them immediately without conditions.

I also appeal for the Cruel Internal Security Act to be abolished.

This is the cry and will of this nation.

Hundreds of rallies and vigils had been organized by various people to send a message to the government for this act to be abolished, but the government seems not to be listening.

The government seems to be doing what they want and not what it`s nation wants.

So please listen to this Nation and bring peace and justice upon this Country.

I also call apon Syed Hamid Albar to resign as the Home Minister as he has failed in his duties and has rejected the will of this nation.

He no longer fits to be a Home Minister as he is a shame for Malaysia.

If the Government still does not listen to the will of this nation and does not abolish the ISA, then Malaysia no longer fits to be in the United Nationals Human Rights Council because it`s such a shame for us to talk about human rights when we do not practice it.

God Save My Country!!!
