Family members of the 12 individuals detained for alleged links to the LTTE hold up their memorandum to the prime minister.
Saminathan was arrested along with Seremban Jaya assemblyman P Gunasekaran and 10 others – V Balamurugan, S Teeran, A Kalaimughilan, S Chandru, S Arivainthan, S Thanagaraj, M Pumugan, Sundram Renggan @ Rengasamy, V Suresh Kumar and B Subramaniam. In a memorandum to the prime minister, Umah, 31, said the detention of the DAP assemblymen was “disappointing” as they had both contributed to PH’s victory in last year’s general election.
“We need our head of the family back as soon as possible. Forty-two days without him – this is too critical,” she said.About 80 family members and friends of the detainees had also gathered outside the Parliament building in a peaceful demonstration against Sosma.
