Last night at about 12.00 a.m we received an SOS call from Kuppan Nagappen, a lorry transport operator that the JPJ had wanted to confiscate his lorry as he had employed an Indian national as the driver. His son argued with the JPJ officer and was immediately handcuffed by police. Kuppan came by and he and a total of 7 Indians were arrested and locked up.This morning P. Uthayakumar called the Section 9 Police station’s Inspector Helmi (013-5544945) and told him to wait as Uthayakumar intended to oppose the remand application. But in the typical police style, Inspector Helmi instead got a 5 days remand order up to 16/7/11 without waiting for Uthayakumar who had arrived at the Shah Alam court at 12.20 p.m.
Khairul Nizar, the Remand Clerk had informed P. Uthayakumar of this.
