In his statement of claim, Mazlan said that he had arrived at Felda Lembah Klau, Raub, on March 9 after he was invited for a dialogue over various issues at the land scheme.
He alleged that there was a roadblock to prevent him from attending the dialogue, which was held at the house of settler Hamidun Yeop Isa.
Mazlan said he then lodged a police report over the incident while the Felda manager, who watched the dialogue, made a report against him for criminal trespass.
The plaintiff also claimed that the story of his arrest and detention appeared in the print and electronic media, which had brought him shame. Mazlan, who gave a press conference outside the court, broke down midway over his description of how his children were affected by his ordeal.
