Berikut adalah butir-butir mengenai program tersebut:
Tarikh: 1 Julai 2014 (Selasa)
Masa: 3 petang
Tempat: Suruhanjaya Hak Asasi Manusia (SUHAKAM), 13th Floor, Menara TH Perdana, Jalan Sultan Ismail, 50250 Kuala Lumpur
Kami amat berharap pihak media akan hadir dan membuat liputan mengenai keganasan dan salahguna kuasa polis terhadap rakyat biasa.

Australian activist detained in Malaysia over rare earth protest
Thanks to Peter Boyle at Green Left Weekly for supporting our work to Shut Down Lynas here in Malaysia with the following blog, please follow and Tully Starr and we will also try and keep you all updated.
