KUALA LUMPUR: Sixteen people including former ISA detainee P. Uthaya Kumar and his wife, and S. Jeyathas from Police Watch Malaysia, have been arrested.
The group had been marching along Jalan Tun Perak at 7.45pm, carrying banners and roses.
They were on their way for a candlelight vigil at Dataran Merdeka on the ‘’cow’s head protest’’ controversy.
Those nabbed included three women. They are now being held at the Dang Wangi police headquarters for questioning.
Police had earlier told them to disperse but the group had not heeded the order.
