Inspector-general of police (IGP) Khalid Abu Bakar said the cops will see what happens during the possible red-shirts demonstration in front of the Malaysiakini office this Saturday.

"We will see (on) Saturday," he told a press conference at the Bukit Aman police headquarters today.

He said this when asked if police will take action against red-shirts leader Jamal Md Yunos for his threat yesterday to "tear down" part of the Malaysiakini office on the planned red-shirts rally on Saturday.

Jamal had threatened to do so if he did not receive an explanation over a grant Malaysiakini received from Open Society Foundations (OSF).

"Yeah, he (Jamal) has been making a lot of statements, but nothing comes (of it)," the IGP said, when asked if Jamal's threat was criminal intimidation.

The IGP added that if Malaysiakini viewed Jamal's remarks as a threat, the news portal should lodge a police report.

He was addressing the media after launching the National Urgent Response (NUR) Alerts in collaboration with Facebook.

Khalid also revealed he had not been informed of any notice for the red-shirts rally in front of the Malaysiakini office this Saturday.

But he was quick to point out that Bersih had also not given notice for their weekly convoys throughout the nation.

"You don't just ask me on only a (one) group. Don't try to paint a picture to the public that it's only one side causing problems.

"It is both, yellow and red (causing problems). So both of them need to abide by the Peaceful Assembly Act (PAA)," he said.

The PAA requires a 10-day notice for any gathering to be submitted to the relevant authorities.

Yesterday, Jamal, along with 100 red-shirts went to Malaysiakini's office in Petaling Jaya to demand answers over the grant from OSF, which is linked to American billionaire George Soros.

When met by Malaysiakini editors, he requested entry and was invited into the building, where he was told over coffee that the portal had already given a detailed explanation on the matter.
