How are we going to trust leaders like Hishamuddin?

 



BY FMT Staff
KUALA LUMPUR: Civic groups today demanded the resignation of Home Minister Hishammuddin Hussein over Sunday’s police swoop on anti-ISA gatherings.

In a joint statement released here, they accused the government of insincerity and deplored the disruption of the peaceful protests and arrest of more than 30 people.

They said Hishammuddin lied when he made an assurance last June that the government would not bar peaceful gatherings.

“We are calling for the Home Minister Hishammuddin Hussein to step down immediately and take responsibility for the mass detention which snatched from the citizens their fundamental rights as guaranteed in the Federal Constitution,” said the statement.
