'Police acted after protesters became aggressive'


The police were "forced" to take action to disperse the Bersih 3.0 rally last Saturday because the "protesters behaved aggressively" Inspector-General of Police Ismail Omar said today.

To prove his point, a compilation of video clippings showing protesters "attacking" police vehicles and breaking through barricades placed at the surrounding to Dataran Merdeka were shown to reporters this afternoon.

"If the action was not taken to disperse the crowd, a clash could have taken place and the situation would have become far more dangerous for both parties," Ismail said, reasoning the use of tear gas and water cannons.

"Everything that happened is an offence of rioting. Besides that, they also breached the court order and maybe other laws too," he said.

The seven-minute video started with showing Himpunan Hijau 3.0 supporters marching from the Kuala Lumpur City Centre (KLCC) to Masjid Jamek, breaking through a police wall on Jalan Ampang.
