Protest isn’t a privilege. It’s a right.
Malaysia’s Federal Court just struck down a law that made it a crime to organize peaceful protests without first notifying police.
Citing a submission from
#TrialWatch and our partner insta_suaram in the decision, the court recognized the law’s disproportionate restriction on freedom of expression.
This is a major step forward for civil liberties in Malaysia—and a reminder that peaceful protest must be protected.
