Hindraf Rally... (Ethnic) Minority Report ( 2 )
This photo series is to be read together with a blog entry by human rights lawyer Malik Imtiaz Sarwar, who does not quite concur with the way Hindraf leaders espouse their cause, but fully respects the personal dignity of Hindraf supporters -- the common stand taken by this blogger.

Read on for this 13-images series.

Police! You are under arrest!
Comments
next time for any demo, bring along umbrella (shield against water spray), goggles, mask for protection. is not heroic to march knowingly the police will retaliate and act violence to stop the march (any "peaceful" march in history in malaysia not ended with chemical spray and tear gas, oh there are actually, marches by umno,m not peaceful anyway).
is it offence to continue march against the barricades, colliding and pushing against them, using some shield (big board or plank stocked earlier or umbrella) ?

Anyone care to investigate if the FRU or the police's weapon were live bullets or rubber ones ?
