GEORGE TOWN: Baljit Singh, Gerakan Human Rights Bureau, slammed Umno’s thuggery-style politics with regard to the anti-Lynas protest at the Esplanade Speaker’s Square here yesterday.
State Umno Youth chief Shaik Hussein Mydin readily admitted that the thugs involved in the commotion were Youth members from the Tanjung Umno division. During the anti-Lynas protest yesterday, the situation turned violent when the rowdy Umno Youth group gate-crashed the event.
Lee Hong Chun, 25, and Adam Chew, 29, from Kwong Wah Yit Poh, were hit on the head with helmets at the initially peaceful demonstration which turned ugly when pro-Lynas and anti-Lynas groups traded insults and started shoving one another.
