KUALA LUMPUR, March 29 – Police arrested Shah Alam MP Khalid Samad, allegedly for sedition at wee hours of this morning. The opposition MP allegedly detained over his involvement in yesterday’s #KitaLawan, the anti-government weekly rally outside Sogo shopping complex, was picked up from his house in Shah Alam at about 3.20am. Pas central working committee member Dr Dzulkefly Ahmad in a social networking site said Khalid had been arrested and brought to Dang Wangi for sedition investigation.
However, he did not state over what was the latter arrested in his post, early morning today. Khalid, who is now being questioned at the Jinjang police station is said to be brought here, after documentation processes at Dang Wangi. It is also uncertain whether Khalid will be remanded or released upon questioning, as police confirmation and comments could not be obtained at press time. A small group of people, believed to be his supporters were seen standing outside the station but no press statement has been made, so far.
