KUALA LUMPUR, July 27 (Bernama) -- The Pembela Negara Federation of Non-Governmental Organisations Council (Magaran) has urged Gerakan Mansuhkan ISA (GMI) to cancel a rally planned for Saturday.
"Magaran wants GMI to cancel the rally. If it persisted, then Magaran will take to the streets to support the ISA at Dataran Merdeka at 11am the same day," said legal adviser Mohd Khairul Azam Abdul Aziz.
Magaran would gather at Masjid Negara, Padang Merbok and Pasar Seni before proceeding to Dataran Merdeka and Istana Negara to send a memorandum supporting the ISA to Yang di-Pertuan Agong.
He said Magaran would support the ISA and agreed if it was amended as the Act was still relevant to maintain peace and harmony.
"Magaran like to warn GMI not to act foolish by demanding that ISA be abolished as it had been proven to be effective in maintaining national security."
Mohd Khairul Azam said Magaran would apply for a permit to hold the rally.
Meanwhile, Pribumi Perkasa Malaysia (Perkasa) has lodged a police report on the planned rallies for the abolition and support of ISA.
Secretary Syed Hassan Syed Ali who lodged the report at Dang Wangi police headquarters today urged police to stop the rallies by GMI and Magaran as they could lead to rioting.
