Syed Azidi Syed Aziz a.k.a Kickdefella arrested

Thursday, September 18th, 2008 | 1:00 am @ SK

Not enough with forceful detention of the three under the draconian law ISA (one of them, a reporter was released after 18 hours detention), the police have arrested another blogger Syed Azidi Syed Abdul Aziz a.k.a Kickdefella in Kota Baru this afternoon.

His wife was reported by Malaysiakini as saying that Kickdefella was arrested under the Sedition Act, which is suspected to be linked with his online campaign to fly the Malaysian flag upside down which attracted the attention of the Prime Minister Abdullah Ahmad Badawi who later condemned the act.

I first and last met up with him in Press Club and I can only say that he is a man full of courage when he decided to move on to Kelantan to be an aide to PAS Kelantan state exco Husam Musa. I was surprised when he confided in me that my blog is among the first few blogs he read during the early days before he started his own.

Let’s throw our solidarity support behind Kickdefella for we must not allow such abuse of power via the wrongful detention to continue as a measure by the Government to curb the growing resentment among the grassroots.
