KUALA LUMPUR - Police will no longer accept any application to hold a rally at the Swedish Assembly on Friday, here.

"The notice must be sent five days prior to the date of the rally and as of now (Wednesday), no such notice has been received.
"Since the rally will be held on Friday, I advise the public to respect and obey the law,” he said to reporters at the Dang Wangi District Police Headquarters (IPD) Media Day, here, on Wednesday.
A poster to hand over a memorandum at the Swedish Embassy on Friday was spotted following the recent incident of the Quran burning in Stockholm, Sweden.
It is believed to be organised by an NGO that called for the public to rally at the Swedish embassy from the KLCC As-Syakirin Mosque after Friday prayers.
Danish right-wing political party leader Rasmus Paludan burned a Quran with a lighter during a protest in front of Turkiye embassy in Stockholm recently.
