Kota Kinabalu: Lawyer Chin Tek Ming defended his participation in the Gempur Rasuah Sabah 2.0 rally.
He questioned what was wrong with exercising his constitutional right to support anti-corruption efforts and provide legal guidance to the students.
Speaking after being questioned by Kota Kinabalu police headquarters regarding the rally held on June 21-22, Chin said:
