Police will take the necessary action regarding the Hindu Rights Action Force's (Hindraf) plan to hold a street assembly in the city in mid-June.
"For us (police) the assembly must have a valid permit. Without it we will treat the assembly as illegal and action will be taken," he told reporters before making a visit to the construction site of Bukit Aman''s Logistics and Public Order Complex with Works Minister Datuk Shaziman Abu Mansor, here today.
Regarding Hindraf leader P.Uthayakumar''s refusal to return to the Kamunting Detention Camp tomorrow despite being served a notice from the police, Ismail said they would take action against him.
"We will see the developments (Uthayakumar) and police will take appropriate action following the existing laws," he said.
It was reported today that Hindraf planned to hold a street demonstration in mid-June somewhere in the city.
Some 2,000 Hindraf supporters attended a prayer ceremony at the Batu Caves Temple yesterday to show thanks for Uthayakumar''s release from ISA (Internal Security Act) detention a week ago.
On May 9, Home Minister Datuk Seri Hishammuddin Tun Hussein released 13 ISA detainees including three Hindraf leaders, Alam Shah state assemblyman M.Manoharan, 48, Uthayakumar, 47, and K.Vasantha Kumar, 36, al of whom had been detained since December 2007.
