KINI ROUNDUP Here are the key headlines you may have missed yesterday, in brief.

Peaceful end to Bersih 5 and red-shirts rallies

The Bersih 5 and red-shirts rallies took place peacefully with a peak crowd of 40,000 and 4,000 respectively.

Former prime minister Dr Mahathir Mohamad had rushed back to the country to participate in the rally where he delivered his speech.

However, Communications and Multimedia Minister Salleh Said Keruak blamed Mahathir for the lower turnout at Bersih 5 compared to its previous rally.

Post-Bersih crackdown

PKR MPs Tian Chua and Zuraida Kamaruddin were arrested at their homes in a post-Bersih dragnet.

Deputy Prime Minister Ahmad Zahid Hamidi, who is also Home Minister, warned that there would be more arrests.

This is a continuation of the pre-Bersih crackdown where protest leaders from both Bersih and the red-shirts were nabbed and remanded.

Anti-terror law use on Bersih condemned

Police made an unprecedented move to use the Security Offences (Special Measures) Act 2012 (Sosma), an anti-terrorism law, against Bersih chief Maria Chin Abdullah, even though the law forbids its usage for political belief and activities.

The use of the anti-terrorism law against Maria sparked condemnation from several rights group including the Society for the Promotion of Human Rights (Proham) and Amnesty International Malaysia.

Former Bersih chairperson Ambiga Sreenevasan vowed that everything will be done to free Maria.
