Arrest-free protest at KLCC

30 Hindraf supporters held a peaceful protest in front of the KLCC shopping centre today demanding the release of detainees held under the ISA.

The protestors also demanded that the government look into the medical needs of P. Uthayakumar who is suffering from diabetes and a heart condition. Uthayakumar is one of five Hindraf leaders held under the ISA on December 13 last year.

His family said that as a result of his detention, his blood sugar level is at 13.5 and he is suffering from disrupted eyesight, chest pains, and possibly damaged heart muscles. His supporters want the government to refer him to the National Heart Institute (IJN) for further treatment.

Also present was PKR vice-president and Subang MP R Sivarasa.
