Another blogger detained in Malaysia

The pro-PAS blogger Penarik Beca, or Bakaq to friends, was picked up by cops from his home in KL just before midnight yesterday.

They also took away his computer, I was told.

A group of bloggers will be at the CCID hq (the old PM's Department near Bank Negara) at 2pm to protest the detention.

Here in Singapore, news about blogger in Malaysia remains a subject that fascinates people. My prayers for Bakaq.

    i liken bloggers to that of the outspoken lot living in a big family. someone has to point out who is right and wrong, whether we like it or not. this blogger is harmless and didnt mean any harm. those with ears should make correction if such allegations is true, then walk on proper path again.

    if the government keeps on treating bloggers like a bunch of enemies, may as well they take in editors, journalists and owners of many publications which we regard as 'extreme' or 'radical'.

    although freedom of the press cannot really be applied (when it comes to inciting public uneasiness over religion and race), we deserve to speak for the truth. sometimes it hurts, alrite but letting any wrongdoings to go on without any check is even more dangerous to our stability.

  14. rock,

    I hope the bloggers will unite to protect penarik beca from beinh unjustly treated. When will UMNO-BN learn that such police-state actions only make them more unpopular than ever. I am saddened by this and, I am praying for the well-being of our fellow blogger.

  17. Sdr Rocky's Bru,

    Kalau benar, harus ada kenyataan rasmi mengenainya daripada polis.

    Kalau tidak, akan timbul pelbagai spekulasi.

    Kita harap hak asasi Sdr Bakar dan semua umat manusia yang berada di negara kita ini dihormati.

    Terima kasih.

    Kutu mainly aggregates other blogs in his site. I dunno what he wrote that so offended "them".

    This detention stinks. Seems like a throwback to last year when all Malaysian bloggers were considered "pariahs".

    Still engaging in scare tactics, our police. Still totally oblivious to public opinion.

    In short...BEBAL!

    What say All Blogs, Rocky?

  37. Things are really getting worse in Malaysia.
    I thought we all be safe and sound after March 8th .
    I thought umno and the federal government "learned" something out of it.
    Apparently not.
    They are making us very "susah".

    As for "penarik beca" , none of what he posted come close to the AK-47 unlimited ammunition firings of YM Raja Petra.
    "penarik beca" charged for sedition is unbelievable .
    How come najib was not charge for anything for his racist speech years ago?

    I think the arrest had something to do with his posting on 14th July 2008 entitled "Kenapa tak usik Raja Petra".

    Apparently, he had defaced the police crest, substituting tigers with dogs and defacing the crown with C4 and $ instead of Allah and Muhammad.

    According to some reports, his arrest has to do with the Police logo being defaced i.e. a dog replacing the tiger on his blog. I don't see what is offensive about that. A dog is more intelligent than a tiger and also more LOYAL...is that because someone did not want to discuss loyalty to our beloved and illustrious PM, the magnificient leader, our Payung, great helmsman, otak kelas satu in UMNO,MCA, MIC(e), Gerakan, PPP etc, protector of the poor and friend of all? Tut, tut.
