16 anti-ISA protesters in Malaysia guilty of illegal assembly


22.02.2012
Sixteen people involved in an anti-ISA rally near Masjid Negara in 2009 have been found guilty of illegal assembly by a Sessions Court.
Only 11 of the accused - seven men and four women - were present in the court Wednesday.
Sessions judge Ainul Shahrin Mohd sentenced each of them to a day's jail and RM2000 fine (S$831) in default a week in prison. Mr Ainul said that the mitigation and sentencing for those absent would be done on another date.
The court room was packed during the proceeding, with some of the accused having to sit in the public gallery as the docks could not accomodate all.
