In separate Session Courts, nine others, including Gadek assemblyman G. Saminathan, were also charged with supporting the terrorist group through their respective Facebook accounts and possessing materials related to the group, on top of existing charges leveled against them.
The remaining eight accused were named A. Kalaimughilan, V. Balamurugan, S. Teran, S. Chandru, R. Sundram, S. Arivainthan, M. Pumugan and S. Thanagaraj.
No plea was recorded from all of the accused as they were to be tried under the Security Offences (Special Measures) Act.
Almost two-thirds of the courtroom was filled with family members, with several DAP MPs also present in support of those who were charged.
