Leading up to Bersih 3.0, again Government sought to STOP the rally:
1. Barricades surrounding Dataran Merdeka area
2. Court order obtained to stop entry of any persons into DM area.
3. Roadblocks all over KL.
1) Rally went on, by 2.40pm it ended, organizers asked to disperse.
2) Then some people broke thru the barrier, and the police reacted by firing teargas and watercannons. Nearly 1000 teargas canisters/grenandes fired INTO the crowd.
