据the Malaysian insider 报导,国际人权组织亚洲区副总裁比尔罗博申PhilRobertson说:829及830两天的Bersih和平大集会,尽管在国阵政府和执法单位全力阻挠之下,仍然顺畅及和平地举行了;整个过程并未造成任何违法或干扰社会治安问题,因此执法单位没有任何理由采取任何行动对付Bersih发起人和组织单位。如果纳吉政权罔顾法律执意对付Bersih组织领导,甚至逮捕他们,这将严重触犯联合国人权宪章!

比尔罗博申强调,公众人士的集会权,是受到国际人权法保障的。  

他是针对副首相阿末扎希恫言Bersih4.0和平大集会为违法行动,警方将毫不犹疑的对领导者采取对付行动。阿末扎希说:“这不是警告,也不仅仅是宣示,他们必须受到法律制裁。”

比尔罗博申说,他将会很开心的将一份联合国的国际人权法案送给阿末扎希仔细研读。如果他不懂得什么是人权法,可以仔细参阅联合国的人权宪章。

比尔罗博申说:“ 阿末扎希先生威胁要对这项完全符合和平原则、完整规划的游行集会领导人采取逮捕对付行动,已经证明马来西亚政府罔顾国际人权法,漠视联合国人权宪章,践踏民主人权。我们绝对不会坐视不理。”

他警告马来西亚三思而后行,这样做只会进一步破坏马来西亚在国际间的形象和声誉。

比尔罗博申日前也曾对纳吉政权发出严厉警告,表示若大马政府不愿遵守联合国人权宪章和国际人权法案条文,就应该退出联合国。

Human rights group warns of repercussions if Bersih organisershauled up

Published: 31 August 2015

Despite the heavy police presence, the Bersih 4 rally proceededpeacefully for all of its 34 hours over the weekend, giving noreason for authorities to take any action against the organisers,says Human Rights Watch. There will be serious harm to Malaysia’sinternational reputation if Putrajaya took action against theBersih 4 rally organisers, Human Rights Watch said today.

Its deputy director for Asia division Phil Robertson said thatthe right to public assembly is an internationally guaranteedright.

His comments come as Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri AhmadZahid Hamidi had yesterday threatened that action will be takenagainst the organisers after the government had branded the 34-hourrally held over the weekend as “illegal”.

“This is not a warning and not just a promise, action must betaken,” he told reporters after launching the Ipoh Timor Umnodivision meeting.

Robertson said he would be “happy” to send Zahid a copy of theUniversal Declaration of Human Rights.

“His threat to take legal action against the organisers for whatwas a peaceful, well-organised protest clearly demonstrates therights abusing orientation of this Malaysian government,” he saidin a statement today.

“Malaysia should recognise that its people have the right totheir own political views, even if the government disagrees withwhat they have to say, and violation of such rights will haveserious consequences on Malaysia’s international reputation,” headded.

The Bersih 4 rally concluded yesterday night without anyincidents and drew tens of thousands to the streets of Kuala Lumpurover the weekend.
