Supporters of the impending Bersih 2.0 rally today filed two police reports against top police officers in Kuala Lumpur and Selangor for allegedly linking the movement for free and fair elections with a seizure of weapons yesterday.

The police reports were filed against Kuala Lumpur deputy police chief Amar Singh and Selangor police chief Tun Hisan Tun Hamzah, for insinuating that the raid on the weapons cache was linked to the peaceful demonstration planned for July 9.

NONEAnak president Mazlan Aliman and PAS Selangor Youth information chief Shahrom Daud filed the reports on behalf of their respective organisations at the Shah Alam police headquarters around 2.35pm.

"This new discovery of weapons such as parangs and Bersih T-shirts is very suspicious and raises many questions.

"The bad image and slander aimed at the Bersih organisers, such as (claims that it is an) illegal organisation and that it could cause chaos and bloodshed, are very irresponsible," the police reports read.

The reports also urged police to speed up investigations, for immediate arrests of suspects, that the identity of the culprits and their motives be made public and a clarification of the link between the weapons cache discovery and the Bersih 2.0 rally.

Police crackdown a 'tragedy'

Mazlan, who read out the contents of the police report to journalists outside the Shah Alam police station, claimed that the recent crackdown on Bersih 2.0 and the spate of roadblocks since yesterday appear to be an orchestrated effort by parties who intend to spur civil unrest.

"This could also lead to the use of the ISA and Emergency Ordinance, including the declaration of an emergency on the pretext of preventive measures.

"If this is the plan, it is a tragedy in our system of a parliamentary democracy," he said, adding that "dirty tactics" such as the May 13, 1969 racial riots, the 1985 Memali clash between PAS supporters and the police and the controversial Ops Lalang, where nearly 200 dissenters were detained under the ISA, were old hat and "disgusting".

Mazlan urged all parties to abide by the Agong's recent decree and uphold the right to freedom of assembly, speech and association as provided for under the federal constitution.

"Every level of society, including the police, must uphold the principles of fairness, wisdom and consultation... as stressed by His Majesty," he said.
