Lawyers for Liberty (LFL) claimed that the police investigation into last weekend’s ‘Save Malaysia’ rally is unlawful.

LFL director Zaid Malek said the section of the Peaceful Assembly Act 2012 (PAA) - which the police are investigating under - had already been struck down by the courts in 2014.

The provision in question is...

Police to grill 25 over PN's Sept 16 rally

PN rally 'disrespectful' of M'sia Day - S'wak PKR Youth

Cops facilitated PN's 'Save Malaysia' rally, no untoward incidents

Don't turn mosques, surau into political arena - minister

COMMENT | Cops have no power under PAA to stop DNAA rally

Sept 16 rally to call for Zahid to be charged again
