Keadilan supreme council member N Gobalakrishnan's wife sought to squash her husband's week-long remand at the Kuala Lumpur High Court this afternoon.

Lawyer P Uthayakumar filed the revision application to Judge Ahmad Maarop at 2.30pm on R Vasanthi's behalf. Gobalakrishnan has been held in police custody since his arrest on Saturday night under Section 4(1) of the Sedition Act.

Section 4(1) deals with offences relating to the use of seditious words. If found guilty, a person charged with a first offence will face a maximum of three-year jail term and a RM5,000 fine.

Uthayakumar said the judge has yet to decide on whether the court will fix a hearing tomorrow as requested by him.
