Orang Asli activists face another wave of arrests in Gua Musang

Five Orang Asli from the interiors of Gua Musang have been arrested by the Forestry Department today over anti-logging blockades.

Lawyer Roger Chan, when contacted, said the arrests were in relation to the Forestry Department's demolition of a blockade set up by the Temiar people in Simpang Petei.

"They were arrested allegedly for blockading to safeguard their ancestral land," Chan told Malaysiakini.
