Cops move in at Anwar ceramah

Police moved in to prevent Anwar from addressing a ceramah in Gombak outside Azmin Ali’s service centre.

This was for the launch of campaign to highlight the Altantuya murder controversy, which began at 9.00pm.

A crowd of a few thousand turned up to listen to the various speakers. When it was Anwar’s turn at around 11.30pm, the cops moved in to prevent him from speaking.

The crowd grew agitated and hurled whatever they could get hold of. Anwar, meanwhile, slipped out backstage and was escorted safely away from the scene.

Riot police with water cannon had sealed off the area.

More police and about 10 FRU trucks arrived at the ceramah venue even after it was over. The crowd dispersed but two people were believed to have been arrested.
