Chegubard arrested by police over sedition allegation, says lawyer
KUALA LUMPUR: Bersatu Port Dickson division chief Badrul Hisham Shaharin, better known as Chegu Bard, was detained by police at his house today in connection with an opposition gathering on Saturday. His lawyer, Muhammad Rafique Rashid Ali, in a statement, said the political activist was arrested at 2.30pm at his home. He said they received confirmation that a police report had been lodged against Chegu Bard in connection with the gathering held at Dataran Merdeka on Saturday. "He was supposed to meet with the investigating officer in Bukit Aman at 11am tomorrow," Rafique said, adding that the arrest was unnecessary as Chegu Bard had given an undertaking to present himself at the police headquarters. Earlier, acting Kuala Lumpur police chief Mohamed Usuf Mohamed Jan was reported as saying that police had received four reports so far in connection with the gathering. One case is being investigated by the Bukit Aman Classified Crime Unit, while the other three have been referred to the Civil Aviation Authority of Malaysia over the use of drones. Investigations are being carried out under Section 4(1) of the Sedition Act; Section 504 of the Penal Code; and Section 233 of the Communications and Multimedia Act 1998.
