Cops block anti-nuke energy protest

About 500 police personnel in many trucks and cars were deployed to block a peaceful anti-nuclear energy gathering in Port Klang this morning.
The police stopped the opposition’s anti-nuclear protest at the Pulau Ketam jetty in Port Klang before it could begin at 10.00am. Klang MP Charles Santiago spoke of intimidation and said that police were on the verge of making arrests.

Some 200 protesters managed to slip through but hundreds of others were turned away at a couple of major road blocks while at the venue, organisers negotiated in vain with police officers.
