Detained children to be 'rehabilitated'???

For those who just woke-up, on November 10,2007 Malaysia witnessed its first major peaceful "demonstration"/march/walk (whatever it is called) to drive electoral reform. The event was organized by BERSIH (http://www.bersih.org)

I can understand what the police locked down the entire city on that and had to spray acid laced water and shoot tear gas at the people (not that I agree) but I CANNOT UNDERSTAND why the children (as young as 6) had to be detained and have their statement taken! Now these children will have to be rehabilitated. See Detained children to be 'rehabilitated'. Is this desperate or a stupid move? Who are are real people who needs to be detained (if they really need to)? The police have summoned the four key political leaders involved in the event for statements to be recorded - why the children?

FREE THE CHILDREN AND LEAVE THEM ALONE! GO CATCH THE BAD GUYS!
