Organiser Sekretariat Solidariti Rakyat (SSR) said police officers went to the activists’ houses and questioned their parents.

“Photographs of our houses were taken. This is very unethical and a gross violation of our families’ privacy,” the group said in a statement today.

SSR added that the activists had already given their full cooperation when they were called by police to record statements on Monday.

“We urge the police to end this intimidation against citizens who are merely exercising their rights to voice their dissatisfaction against the government.”

Meanwhile, Undi-18 co-founder Qyira Yusri said police officers came to her house today and demanded to know her whereabouts.

“Why can’t you contact our lawyers?” she said on Twitter.

Muda vice-president Dr Thanussha Francis Xavier said the police came to her home in Taiping, and questioned family members about her.

“We will not stop fighting,” she said on Twitter, adding that she will not bow to threats.

Eleven activists were called in by police on Monday to facilitate investigations under Regulation 17(1) of the Prevention and Control of Infectious Diseases (Measures Within Infected Local Areas) (National Recovery Plan) Regulations 2021 and Section 21 of the Prevention and Control of Infectious Diseases Act.

On Saturday, hundreds of protesters clad in black gathered outside Masjid Jamek and attempted to march to Dataran Merdeka. Police, however, cordoned off roads leading to the square.
