PETALING JAYA: People are gathering in big numbers at Dataran PJ for Pakatan Rakyat's rally Saturday.
The rally is among several organised by the opposition to protest the results of the May 5 general election.
Police have warned that the rally is illegal as they have not received the 10-day notice as required by law under the Peaceful Assembly Act.
Home Minister Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi has said that those that do not adhere to the act will "pay a heavy price" for their offence.
The crowd, mostly clad in black, started to arrive as early as 4.00pm. The event proper started at 5.00pm with speeches from representatives of student groups and non-governmental organisations.
