Just got back from the Selangor Mansion area. What the actual fuck is going on?
Civil Defence, Immigration, cops all out in force. Reporters not allowed to get too close. Sources on the ground saying hundreds picked up, including minors and refugees. Immigration authorities have asked press to wait for official statement.
Residents are telling me that they were not given masks - those who were turfed out were wearing their own. Videos sent through WhatsApp show social distancing is not being practiced. People packed into immigration trucks, handcuffed.
Those watching from neighbouring buildings were shouted at, told to shut their windows/not look.
This is ridiculous. Hours after the announcement on relaxed measures the authorities start arresting people left and right - Malaysia has not *beaten* Covid-19 yet. Now migrant workers + refugees + other vulnerable groups will go to ground and not come forward even if ill.
I am running out of fingers on which to count the human rights abuses that have transpired in just a few hours.
I'm not going to post photos that could compromise identities on here, but even from this it seems quite clear that the authorities don't really give two hoots about social distancing.
