His lawyer Nasar Khan, who confirmed the arrest, said that Mohamad, who is popularly known as Mat Sabu was being investigated under the Section 143 of the Penal Code and Section 4 of the Sedition Act.
"I am with him right now, he is being arrested for his participation in the rally.”
Nasar said that the PAS leader was contacted earlier by police asking him to present himself at the Dang Wangi police headquarters. He was nabbed after arriving at the police station this morning.
"He was called to come… (but) police didn’t say what for. When he arrived, he was arrested,” he told The Malaysian Insider.
Nasar said he has yet to ascertain whether police would apply for a remand order against Mohamad.
