KUALA LUMPUR: May 13, 2008
P. Uthayakumar’s mother has made a Mothers Day appeal to the Government for the release of her son and all other Internal Security Act (ISA) detainees.
K. Kalaivaniy made the appeal when she came to Parliament yesterday to tell her grievances to Opposition Leader Datin Seri Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail and DAP veteran Lim Kit Siang.
She came with a group of people, including Hindraf national coordinator R.S. Thanenthiran.
Kalaivaniy handed the two opposition leaders a letter of appeal that she wrote to Prime Minister Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi.
“My son has been detained for five months for trying to do something good for Malaysia. He is suffering in the detention camp, his hands have developed rashes and he is wearing pants torn at the knee.
“He has a heart problem and he needs to be sent to Institut Jantung Negara. Please give him medical attention,” she told reporters in Tamil.
She added that all the detainees held under the ISA had mothers worrying about them, and urged for their release.
Dr Wan Azizah and Lim said they had both submitted questions to be raised in Parliament relating to Hindraf, but the questions were refused
