Hindraf 31 released |
Two guys claim credit for ‘Hindraf 31’ release in the daily they owned without any compunction. They never uttered a word for the first 10 days of the arrest, never attended the court proceedings, never posted bail, never hired a lawyer to represent the victims and yet they use their daily’s to hoodwink the Indian community. |

Crack in ‘Hindraf 5’
Saturday, January 12, 2008
DAP MP Kulasegaran has hinted in his speech at a Ponggal harvesting festival yesterday in Port Klang that there is a crack in the relationship of the five Hindraf leaders arrested under Malaysian draconian Internal Security Act (ISA), without going in details. Also, he appealed to the media present not to report on this matter. But many in the crowed were whispering.
Apparently, four of the arrested -- Ganabathirau, Vasanthakumar, Kenghadharan and Manoharan have turned against Uthayakumar accusing him of misappropriating the Hindraf funds collected from the public running to more than a million. It seems the four had made a police report. |

Hindraf Will Not Give Up Even If We Are Fighting A Losing Battle
Thursday, January 03
"I will never regret for initiating HINDRAF and leading it to its current struggle. The Malaysian Indians have been cheated by the UMNO led Government over the last 50 years using “coalition" Indian political parties to pacify the Indian community whenever they complain their rights are trampled upon.

When persons belonging to a religious minority resort to a peaceful protest to highlight their plight, and is brutally suppressed, the country of their origin will take note.
