KUALA LUMPUR (June 27): The police have advised the public against participating in a rally planned at a public car park in front of the Seri Perdana Complex in Putrajaya this Saturday.

Kuala Lumpur police chief Datuk Rusdi Mohd Isa said no permission has been granted by the owner of the proposed venue, Putrajaya Corporation, for the event as required under the Peaceful Assembly Act (Act 736).

He said strict action would be taken against those who attend the event.

According to Rusdi, the police had received a letter of notification from the organiser last June 14 to hold the rally, but permission has not granted by the owner of the venue.

"The landowner (Putrajaya Corporation) does not allow the assembly there and we advise the organiser, known as Demi Negara, not to continue with the assembly,” he told a media conference at the Brickfields District Police Headquarters, here Thursday.

Rusdi said the police had come across a viral video on the TikTok app inviting the public to join the rally.

The police have received 85 reports on the issue and have opened an investigation paper under Section 505 (b) of the Penal Code and Section 233 of the Communications and Multimedia Act 1998.
