Ex-ISA detainees attend 'heroes night'
About 2,000 people attended an event to pay tribute to the six reformasi activists who were recently released from their two-year Internal Security Act detention in Ipoh, Perak last night.
The event - dubbed 'ISA Heroes Night' - was organised by Perak Keadilan and was the the first in a series of dinners to be held in various states over the coming weeks.
