The alleged assault o­n two Internal Security Act detainees appeared to be part of a series of provocative actions which may be used to extend their detention, said the Abolish ISA Movement today.

GMI chairperson Zaid Kamaruddin ( photo ) said that the first of such actions, which started early this month, was the alleged attempt by the camp authorities to force ailing detainee Dr Badrulamin Baharon to attend a trial in Kuala Lumpur scheduled for May 5.

Zaid said when the other detainees protested, camp authorities retaliated by destroying a fruit and vegetable garden tended by Hishammudin Rais.

This, he added, prompted the detainees to start a boycott against the camp authorities by sleeping along the corridor outside their dormitories.
