The five reformasi activists who have been undergoing a two-year Internal Security Act detention since last year met other inmates at the Kamunting Detention Centre for the first time when they participated in a sporting event held in conjunction with Merdeka day.

Their lawyer, M Kulasegaran told malaysiakini this after meeting three of the detainees at the centre yesterday morning.

He said he met Keadilan leaders Tian Chua and Saari Sungib as well as filmmaker-cum- malaysiakini columnist Hishamuddin Rais.

Keadilan leader Dr Badrul Amin Baharon could not meet the lawyer due to "personal reasons" while another detained party leader, Lokman Noor Adam, was attending a court case in Kuala Lumpur.
