Dr J Relieved to Be Discharged by Court
BUTTERWORTH, 28 OCTOBER, 2011: Dr Michael Jeyakumar Devaraj, who was charged along with five other of his fellow Parti Sosialis Malaysia (PSM) members with possessing documents for an illegal assembly and having subversive papers were given a discharge not amounting to an acquittal by a Sessions Court here.
The 56-year-old Sungai Siput MP said they were relieved to be given the discharge by Sessions judge Ikmal Hishan Mohd Tajuddin, but they would try to meet with the Home Ministry to seek answers over the offences which they allegedly committed before the Bersih 2.0 rally in July.
We want them to look into the police force as there is something fishy going on. Who was calling the shots and making up the lies? Why were we detained for a month? he said to reporters outside the court Friday morning.
