‘Those arrested had nothing to do with Bersih, communism’

PSM said their members were arrested for promoting their "Udahla tu... Bersarala'' campaign but the police are trying to link it to Bersih to prevent its rally.

KUALA LUMPUR: The Parti Sosialis Malaysia (PSM) members who were detained by police had nothing to do with Bersih.

They were detained while promoting PSM’s “Udahla tu… Bersarala” campaign which was directed at Barisan Nasional, clarified party secretary general S Arutchelvan today

However he added the police are trying to link both activities together to prevent the July 9 Bersih gathering.

“We (PSM) support Bersih fully, however the ‘Udahla’ campaign has nothing to do with the Bersih rally,” Arutchelvan told reporters at party headquarters in Brickfields here.

“The police will find whatever means they can to prevent the Bersih gathering. They are using this issue to prevent the Bersih rally. Everybody knows that,” he said.

He added that the allegations made against PSM were “a planned action” by the police to create a phantom enemy in order to facilitate the call for emergency where the government could carry out mass arrests.

Arutchelvan said that due to the timing of the PSM roadshow which fell close to the July 9 Bersih rally, PSM members did promote the rally.

“We do tell the people about Bersih rally but our campaign has nothing to do with Bersih,” he said.

The ‘Udahla’ campaign isto highlight the pitfalls of the BN government which has ruled for 54 years.

The roadshow for the campaign – which had been planned since February this year- began on Friday with one convoy leaving from Ipoh to campaign in the northern region and the other embarking from Johor to campaign in southern peninsular region.

Barely hours into the campaign, PSM ran into several glitches. A total of 28 people were detained in Johor on Friday and released at 4am on Saturday after having their statements recorded.

They were detained under three charges- illegal assembly, sedition and for publishing pamphlets and leaflets against the Printing and Publications Act.

Thirty one members, including Sungai Siput MP Dr Michael Jeyakumar Devaraj, were detained early Sunday morning in Penang. Thirty of them have been remanded for seven days by the Butterworth Magistrate’s Court while 16-year-old S Ragu has been released unconditionally.

‘Bogey communist threat a cold war script’

In addition to the three charges, the convoy detained in Penang was also slammed with an additional charge – Section 122 of the Penal Code for allegedly launching war against the King.

This was believed to be due to seizure of various items related to the Malayan Communist Party (MCP) as revealed by Penang deputy police chief, Abdul Rahim Jaafar yesterday.

T-shirts of communist leaders like Rashid Maidin were found in the bus of the convoy in Penang.

PSM also lashed out at Abdul Rahim and Home Minister Hishammudin Hussein for “reusing a stale script of the Cold War era” in trying to link PSM’s struggle with the MCP. The MCP have been disbanded for decades now.

“It is hilarious that the government is trying to link PSM with Communists merely based on T-shirts and other mechandise that bare images of communist leaders”, he said .

“These T-shirts that bare images of past communists leaders are sold everywhere. They are available in Chow Kit, Central Market. I myself am wearing a Che Guevara t-shirt now,” he said refering to the popular Argentinian socialist leader.

Malaysian leaders have been seen to be friendly with communist regimes in China and Vietnam, he said.

“Even Mahathir has been photographed with Fidel Castro. So what is the problem here?,” he asked.

He added that PSM’s struggles are widely known and differ from the communists and other left-winged parties.

He said that these desperate technique from the government will not disuade the party from continuing its struggle.

Also at the press conference were PSM president Mohd Nasir Hashim and party treasurer A Sivarajan.

 A married teaching assistant has been arrested for allegedly having sex with a 13-year-old boy she was tutoring after school.

Holly Polson, 35

Holly Polson, 35, is accused of having sex with the student in an empty classroom at Palmdale Middle School in California.

Polson, a mother of four, has been booked for four felony counts of lewd acts with a child, and is due to appear in court tomorrow.

Sergeant Brian Hudson of the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department told ABC Polson was supposed to be giving the boy extra tutoring – but instead she was sleeping with him.

He said: ‘We entrust our children to teachers and school instructors and in this case that trust was violated.’

When confronted, the boy, who cannot be named for legal reasons, told police the relationship had started about two weeks earlier.

Officers say Polson confessed to the affair when she was arrested at her family home on Tuesday.

Sergeant Hudson said: ‘She admitted to several instances of having sexual intercourse with the victim on school grounds.’

Polson is being held in custody. Her bail is set at $100,000.

She is the 15th female teacher in the U.S. to be arrested or charged for having sex with a pupil this month alone.

High School Teacher Had Sex with FIVE Students at One Time – While Husband Served Overseas

A teacher has been jailed after being accused of having sex with five of her teenage students during an orgy at her home.

Brittni Colleps, a married mother of three, invited the boys to her Texas home for the sex romp and the encounter was filmed on their cell phones. The 27-year-old’s husband was away overseas duty serving with the US military.

Colleps, an English teacher and girl’s basketball coach, faces up to ten years in jail after being charged with five felony counts of inappropriate relationships between a student and a teacher. Although all five of the teens involved with Colleps were 18 years of age or older, Texas law prohibits sex between a teacher and a student, regardless of the student’s age.

According to a police arrest warrant affidavit, the investigation into Colleps began after a 19-year-old student told investigators about his sexual relationship with his English teacher. The student told police the relationship began with sexually explicit text messages and photos that they sent to each other for about a week in late April.

Later that month the student drove to Colleps home in Arlington, Texas where they had sex. He later received a text message from the teacher saying they ‘had fun’ and an invite back to the house. When he arrived there were four other students from Kennedale High School present and they told police they all had sex with Colleps.

When police analyzed the teen’s phone they found video footage of him and Colleps having sex. They also found sexually explicit photos and text messages the pair had sent each other. Police later interviewed a second student who said he was present when the sex romp took place. School officials learned about the teacher’s alleged relationships and put her on leave with pay.

Schools Superintendent Gary Dugger posted a letter on the school’s website saying that the district was cooperating with investigators. ‘As the alleged acts occurred off campus, once Kennedale ISD personnel were put on notice, immediate action was taken,’ the letters says. Colleps is being held in the Arlington jail on $125,000 bail after turning herself into police on Monday.
