Prior to this, Kuala Lumpur Police chief Datuk Rusdi Mohd Isa said the police would open investigation papers under Section 9(5) of the Peaceful Assembly Act 2012 pertaining to the gathering in Putrajaya.

He said this was because the organisers insisted on holding the rally despite being advised that the owner of the premises had not given permission for them to use the location. — Bernama
