Bersih still haram. Kotor is halal? Is Hisham a fool? Is he above the Agong?

The Bersih 2.0 movement is still illegal and subject to legal action, said Home Minister Hishammuddin Hussein who exercising his powers as home minister, had declared Bersih 2.0 illegal on July 1.

He said that although the Agong had granted an audience to Bersih 2.0's leaders yesterday, the government's position has not changed and told a press conference in Putrajaya today, "They are banned. They are still banned. Nobody can put themselves over the law... just because Tuanku met them doesn't mean they are no longer illegal."

He dodged a barrage of questions related to Bersih 2.0's legality and repeatedly said the rally organisers must deal with the police when asked whether or not it had a guarantee of being granted access to a stadium for its rally.
