Aktivis mahasiswa Adam Adli Abdul Halim dijangka didakwa esok bawah Akta Hasutan 1948 di Mahkamah Majistret Kuala Lumpur.

Menurut peguamnya, N Surendran, perkara itu disahkan oleh pegawai penyiasat hari ini. Adam, 24, kini disiasat kerana ucapannya pada satu forum pada 13 Mei lalu.

PETALING JAYA: Student activist Adam Adli, whose five-day remand expires tomorrow, will be charged with sedition at the Jalan Duta Sessions Court tomorrow morning.
Lawyer Latheefa Koya today said the police had officially informed about the matter today.
“The police had informed that Adam will be charged under the Sedition Act tomorrow morning at Jalan Duta. Lawyer N Surendran will be representing Adam,” she said in a tweet.
Adam, 24, was arrested in Kuala Lumpur on May 18 for remarks he allegedly made during a post-GE13 forum on May 13.
In the forum, Adam, along with other activists, had called for a street demonstration to protest alleged electoral fraud during the general election.
He is being detained at the Jinjang police detention facility and is being investigated under Section 4(1) of the Sedition Act and Section 124(B) of the Penal Code.
Section 4(1) of the Sedition Act provides that it is a criminal offence to make any oral, printed and published statements or acts with “seditious tendency”.
If Adam is found guilty of sedition, he could be imprisoned for up to three years, fined up to RM5,000, or both.
Earlier today, Amnesty International called for the immediate and unconditional release of Adam.
The rights watchdog said Adan was arrested solely for peacefully expressing his views. It also said it was told by credible sources that Adam “was subjected to interrogation from 10am until 6pm on May 19 and May 20, with the interrogators repeatedly asking the same questions”.
Adam has refused to answer the questions in the latter part of the interrogation, telling the police to just watch a video of his speech during the public meeting instead, said Amnesty ~ Free Malaysia Today
