KUALA LUMPUR: The candlelight vigil organised by Gerakan Mansuhkan ISA, planned tonight, will not take place.
GMI said the event has been postponed to Jan 5.
Its secretary E. Nalini, when contacted, confirmed the postponement, and said this was because there was shortage of lawyers to defend them should they be arrested.
"Most of the lawyers who volunteered to help us are out of town because of the holidays," she said.
Nalini said the police have asked it to re-apply for the new date.
The vigil was supposed to have been held at 8pm at Dataran Merdeka on Saturday.
