BERSIH2.0: Cynical Display of Police Power

by Terence Netto

COMMENT: The Police have right away overtaken Ibrahim Ali in turning await for a BERSIH 2.0 impetus in to a going concern among citizens.

Repressive measures they have taken in a past few days have been set to have a programmed impetus a object of national attention. That dovetails nicely with what a marchs organisers had in thoughts when they set out to proclaim it weeks ago.

At that point, a organisers had doubts as to whether a second edition of this event, initial staged in November 2007, would be a success a inaugural a single resoundingly was.

Thanks to a agitator fulminations of PERKASAs Ibrahim Ali as good as a myopia of a Police, a arriving impetus has had all a revving-up a organisers could have wished for to have it substitute a predecessor in size as good as importance.

BERSIHs organisers must be beating their chops during how their programmed eventuality has performed a assists that a flaming opponent as good as a maladroit force constructed to render them.

A Re-enactment of 1987?

Earlier this year, you had a hint that Malaysia may good be a military state, during sure times during least. This was when former budding minister Dr Mahathir Mohamad disclosed that he was opposite to a ISA detentions of October 1987 when more than a hundred antithesis politicians as good as anti-government amicable activists were hold underneath a draconian law.

The former Inspector-General of Police, Hanif Omar, chimed in to endorse that in truth Mahathir had voiced his misgivings about a military action but a military had left ahead nevertheless.

This was a extreme transgres! sion of a ISA Act that specifically vests a energy ! to detai n a person in a Home Minister as good as not a Police. The Home Minister in October 1987 was Mahathir. If he had in truth opposite a use of a Act in traffic with a tense incident that prevailed during that time as good as if detentions had taken place, that was what happened, afterwards Police energy had overridden civil authority.

Likewise these days, you have been declare to re-enactments of what transpired in 1987. Even before BERSIH has applied for a military permit for their march, a IGP as good as his emissary have released open warnings opposite a legality of a impetus notwithstanding inherent guarantees of adults right to pacific assembly.

Worse, a Police, as of yesterday, have begun to arrest political activists in an attempt to preempt a impetus programmed for July 9. Members of Parti Sosialis Malaysia (PSM), in Johor Baru upon Friday as good as in Penang yesterday, have borne a initial brunt of this abuse of military power.

Reports say that a military incarcerated a PSM activists, who were engaged in legitimate political activity, upon drift that they were canvassing for await for a Bersih march.

Cynical Display of Police Power

Selective as good as politically motivated detentions by a force have been an aged story. In this instance, however, it is finished in a teeth of a authorities dawdling in traffic with a purveyors of a widely disseminated video allegedly display antithesis leader Anwar Ibrahim in a contract with a sex worker. Lassitude upon a partial of a law enforcers is asocial as good as staggering.

It also reflects amnesia about a context in that morally awakened adults have been prompted to act in concert in a face of asocial displays of military a! uthority .

It is undeniable that a single of a reasons UMNO-BN romped to a landslide feat in a March 2004 general choosing was that underneath a newly commissioned budding minister, Abdullah Ahmad Badawi, a supervision had upon a previous December moved to place military energy underneath inspection through a origination of a royal elect upon a government of a force.

That preference by Abdullah was widely renouned as good as was instrumental in securing his supervision a landslide publicity by a electorate 3 months later.

Fifteen months after a royal elect was instituted, it done open a recommendations in March 2005. What happened was that PM Abdullah wavered in a face of vigour from vested interests in a force opposite a pass letter of reference a origination of an eccentric row to demeanour in to open complaints of military misconduct.

In retrospect, it can be pronounced that a administration of Abdullah Badawi entered a begin of a steep decline in a recognition from a heady heights in March 2004 to a loss of BNs two-thirds parliamentary majority 4 years after since of a PMs waffling upon military reform.

Now things have left beyond a question of budding ministerial wavering in a face of military power. It is more a case of civil as good as military government colluding to seaside up each other.

It is in this sense that a BERSIH impetus is quick apropos a gauge of a extent to that Malaysia has turn a quasi-police state in that increasingly illegitimate civil government as good as capricious military energy conspire to repress adults! engaged in a practice of constitutionally protected rights.

Truth about Bersih

Do we know because the UMNO-led government (meaning UMNO itself) is sh*t frightened of 'Bersih', so most so even the (supposedly neutral) Head of the EC had his butt kicked bytowkay to do his bit to persuade the organizers from abandoning the rally march?

Do we know because Perkasa has been let loose from the control to threaten the non-Malays from participating, in tones as well as contents that, in any alternative nation with an ISA as well as anti-sedition laws, would have seen the proponent of those extremist threats jailed for the lengthy time?

Do we know because both Perkasa as well as UMNO Youth were galvanised in to organizing opposite rallies against Bersih?

No, it's not Anwar Ibrahim - he's damaged goods, generally in the nation spooky by sex, as well as that hypocritically as well as practically expect the leaders to be the Mufti of Mecca!

Actually the just the 6-letter word!

Bersih!

And the single with an e-tanda.

If the organizers has used the word reformasi wakakaka, the UMNO-led government wouldnt have caring two figs.

Why is Bersih so unacceptable?

... well, the because the definition of Bersih means that whatever it opposes is Kotor.

Hence UMNO is just sh*t frightened that the Heartland will locate the implied definition of what the criticism is all about, the kotor UMNO-government as well as that wouldnt do, cant be permitted ...

.... that is because they (UMNO) have been prepared to launch another May thirteen or preferably (not to disquiet FDI etc ) an Ops Lalang II.

KUALA LUMPUR, June twenty-five Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin has deemed a Jul 9 Bersih convene as politically-motivated as well as a hazard to inhabitant security as good as a countrys reputation.

Apart from job in a organisers for doubt next week, military additionally insist they will not issue permits for during least three rallies planned upon a day.

As distant as a government is concerned, you have done a preference as well as you consider which a public is bootleg as well as if a role is to send out a summary which there have been disagreements, which there have been suggestions which they wish to make about a rules of elections to a SPR (Election Commission), there have been process as well as procedures for that.

Because of that, you consider a rationale since by Bersih to have a convene is not relevant. Thats why you contend this convene is politically-motivated, a deputy prime minister told reporters after touring a booths during a GLC Open Day here during a KL Convention Centre.

Election watchdog Bersih 2.0 is formulation a large convene upon a day in Kuala Lumpur to pull for electoral reforms, with PAS aiming to galvanize all one million of a members to take partial in a assembly.

Umno Youth as well as right-wing organisation Perkasa have additionally promised to carry out apart rallies to rival Bersihs.

Today, Muhyiddin defended a opposite rallies as well as pronounced it was normal to have opposite groups to any movement.

Whether it is right or wrong, which is up to our interpretations, but you see this as something which can erupt situations whic! h will n ot good a country, which will ruin a countrys picture internationally, in a context of our hard work to! rise a nation, attract investors, build our picture globally as a peaceful as well as developed country, he said.

Muhyiddin concurred Umno Youths pledge to convene but reiterated a prime ministers remarks which a authorities have a right to take actions opposite anyone who participates in a public which is deemed illegal.

Police have regularly warned they will treat a rallies as bootleg assemblies.

So you leave it to a wisdom of a Umno Youth as well as Barisan Nasional leaders to confirm upon whether which is a right pierce or what is a right action they should take, he said.

Muhyiddin then claimed headlines coverage of a rally, if it proceeds, will be used to secretly etch Malaysia as being in a state of unrest.

Something rotten at the Duta courts

Shakespeare wrote in a fool around 'Hamlet' which "something is decaying in a state of Denmark". Court of Appeal judge NH Chan had additionally made similar remarks when he wrote a Ayer Molek Rubber Co Bhd vs Insas Bhd judgment in 1995, where he described a box he was presiding over as being about an misapplication perpetrated by a probity of law.

Can yesterday's self-assurance of a infamous 'Datuk T' contingent be said a caricature of probity deserving a internal version which goes "something is decaying in Duta courts" resulting in possibly an additional assign appearing over Opposition Leader Anwar Ibrahim?

Anwar had yesterday maintained a government's conspiracyin a matter, asking how can a single apply oneself a supervision when its instruments are so blatantly used politically.

Let's back-track a bit prior to returning to a conviction. The video was screened upon Mar twenty-one during a posh as well as chronological Carcosa Seri Negara Hotel by a Datuk T for multiform invited editors as well as reporters in a room requisitioned underneath a name of former Malacca chief apportion Abdul Rahim Thamby Chik, who is additionally Risda chairperson.

Rahim is part of theDatuk T trio which additionally comprised business male Shazryl Eskay Abdullah as well as former MP S! huib Laz im - all 3 later claimed responsibility for a event. The 3 protagonists had called upon A! nwar to resign.

This led to Anwar issuing a matter upon a same day, Mar 21,denying which he was a man in a video as well as lodged a military inform a next day.

As a result, a contingent was called in as well as it was during this time Eskay said he had handed a usually copy of a sex fasten to a police.

However, tools of a clip made their way online usually prior to a Sarawak state elections, usually to resurface last month, this time in full. It additionally made its way to a homes of village headmen as well as politicians via post.

After a period of silence, Eskay took a eremite oath during a Sentul mosque - finish with bullet-proof vest - to swear which Anwar was a male in a video.

He repeatedhimself yesterday when a contribution of a box were being review out in court, revelation a probity which a male in a video who resembles Anwar, was in truth a politician.

Subsequently a contingent pleaded guilty to be fined a total of RM5,500.

Discrepancy prior to yesterday

When Eskay told reporters upon Wednesday which he would be charged upon Friday, multiform council reporters claimed which they spotted Rahim apparently assembly Prime Minister Najib Razak in a eighth month House.

While Najib denied a a! ssembly took place, Anwar maintains it did in truth happen, suggesting which it would probably lead to a assign being reduced, to illustrate adding muscle ! to his a ssertion of a political conspiracy.

The contingent - Eskay, Rahim as well as Shuib - were a categorical actors along with DPPs Kamaludin Md Said as well as Mohd Hanafiah Zakaria as well as respected warn Muhammad Shafee Abdullah as well as dual alternative defence lawyers.

Another bombshell forsaken prior to a Datuk T contingent were charged was when Umno-owned Utusan Malaysia published a story yesterday quoting Eskay as observant he was ready for any result with a essay aptly titled 'Kami sedia apa saja hukuman' (We are rebuilt to face any punishment).

So Utusan had a scoop, probably since they knew a tall probability of all 3 scheming to plead guilty.

The same inform settled which a contingent would be charged underneath Section 5 of a Film Censorship Act, for circulating, exhibiting, distributing as well as displaying an obscene film, which is punishable by a excellent of not less than RM10,000 as well as not some-more than RM50,000 or seizure for a term not surpassing 5 years or both.

Utusan however got which assign wrong when charge filed a obtuse assign opposite Datuk T. Anwar pounced upon this to back his political conspiracy accusation.

Proceedings in court

Before a attainment of a accused, reporters somehow knew in advance which a box would be listened during magistrate's probity 3 as well as rushed up there.

Normally, a box would have to be purebred first, usually afterwards will a courtroom be known. That is a normal procession any warn will tell you to safeguard which there is no regulating of judge or magistrate.

It could not be dynamic if a box had been pure! bred fir st when a opposite non-stop during 8am as well as which Eskay as well as co were told to arrive during which time, though they instead presented themselves someday around 9.15am in court.

According to reporters covering a trial, dual wid! escreen televisions were already placed in probity as a probable preface to a video being screened.

Some lawyers who were not examination a box though were in a large probity complex were listened murmuring which a protests outside a probity in await of Datuk T as well as a charging were merely a sideshow - a show which has enchanted as well as held a total nation captive as a three-and-a-half hour record rolled on.

Another indicate of bauble was when a assign was review out underneath section 292 of a Penal Code, all 3 had asked for a mangle to consult their counsel, as this was "a new charge".

When a box was recalled, they pleaded guilty as well as suprisingly, a contribution of box had already been in a centre prepared.

The normal record in such cases in a magistrate's probity is which when a chairman pleads guilty, a prosecutors would find some-more time - usually a couple of hours or in a afternoon as well as sometimes a next day to prepare a statement.

However, in this case, after a 45-minute interval, a assign was review again as well as all 3 entered their defence with a matter of contribution ready to be review out in court.

The five-page fact sheet appeared to have been delicately crafted to apply to Anwar in a video as his name was referred to during least 5 times right from a first paragraph.

Then came a genu! ine jolt when Shafee as well as not a charge told a justice which according to box laws, many such cases had been thrown out upon interest since a obscene element had not been screened.

He afterwards applied for a 20-minute sex-clip to be shown in court. The charge as well as alternative defe! nce coun sel raised no objections.

The fasten afterwards appeared upon a dual large screens, which had been been placed there earlier.

Then Shafee began his extensive submission in mitigation, representing a third defendant, Rahim.

He settled which a revelation of video was made in a defence of a public good as well as his client's purpose was merely engagement a hotel room. The alternative dual warn afterwards delivered their submissions.

Merely coincidences or conspiracy

Putting together all a incidents, what is a sane chairman to pretence - which they were merely coincidences or a meticulously crafted consipiracy as claimed by Anwar?

This despite a unfamiliar expert commentary which a chairman behaving a sex action resembled a opposition leader.

The fasten was shot prior to a consequential Sarawak election as well as a alternative indicate is which Anwar, who is confronting an ongoing sodomy hearing during which time, had successful block a admission of 3 consequential justification retrieved in a military lock-up - a toothbrush, a mineral water bottle as well as white towel.

The alternative indicate not referred to earlier is which Eskay himself was inextricable in a legal battle involving a RM20 million suit he filed opposite Merong Mahawangsa Sdn Bhd as well as a single of its directors, over a construction of a Johor Baru curved bridge. The High Court ruled opposite him.

Is it strange which a sex-tape investigations took 3 months as according to a late senior military officer, in such cases a chairman caught would be charged within a week. The clip was additionally during large distributed after Eskay had handed what h! e claime d as a usually duplicate to a police.

Were hidden hands during work when what was reportedly a assign underneath a Film Censorship Act as was highlighted in Utusan was reduced to a obtuse offence underneath a Penal Code?

Is it a fluke which large shade televisions were placed in probity prior to a begin of record as well as a contribution of box in a centre prepared.

As a contribution present! themsel ves, a readers can confirm either something decaying really happened during a Duta Court yesterday. - Malaysiakini
