BERSEH 2.0 RALLY: 91 BARRED FROM ENTERING KUALA LUMPUR

KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia - It seems the situation concerning the proposed rally by Berseh 2.0 had turned from bad to worst.
Earlier, the Merdeka Stadium’s booking officer has rejected the request to use the Stadium as the venue for the rally.
Now, the Kuala Lumpur city police obtained a restriction order from the magistrate’s court yesterday under Section 98 of the Criminal Procedure Code to prevent 91 individuals from entering the city.
Other notable names on the list were Opposition Leader Anwar Ibrahim, PAS spiritual adviser Nik Abdul Aziz Nik Mat and DAP stalwart Lim Kit Siang. This include Umno Youth chief Khairy Jamaluddin and Perkasa chief Ibrahim Ali, from setting foot in several places on that day.

• According to KL City police chief Amar Singh, Bersih 2.0 chairperson Ambiga Sreenevasan and opposition leaders will be arrested should they enter certain parts of the city on Saturday.
• The order prevents those on the list, which also includes Bersih 2.0 steering committee members, from being present at these areas from 8am to 6pm.
• Responding to a question, Amar denied that Ambiga was the topmost name on the list.“No such thing. All 91 names are there, and nobody is considered top priority,” he said, adding that those who defied the order would be arrested.

“First of all, you will be violating a court order and secondly, they will be liable under Section 188 of the Penal Code,” he told Free Malaysia Today.
Those found guilty of committing an offence under Section 188 with regard to disobeying orders could be jailed for one month, fined RM400 or both.
The section also stipulated that if the offenders’ actions result in riots or endagers human lives, health or safety, a jail term of six months or a fine of RM2,000 or both could be imposed.
