She was detained at 11.18pm in the KL area.
Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng speaking at a press conference described her arrest as a “travesty of justice” and “a mockery of democracy”. There appears to be a massive crackdown to prevent 916 from happening, he observed.

This could be the last attempt from the very powerless GOV. Shame on you Pak Lah, shame on you UMNO, your racist agenda has been well exposed to the public, do you think by your undemocratic media can demolish the power of reformation wanted by Malaysian peoples.
let us all stay united and pray for our heroine, Teresa. She didnt do anything wrong, even the leaders of the Mosque said she didn’t intefere with the azan prayer. so why arrest someone when there’s no complains from the mosques itself. If she did something wrong charge her in court. why use ISA? people, pray that God will give her the strength during her detention and we also pray that she will be released soon.
