Details are sketchy. I met Sheih on the day Jeff Ooi and Rocky was summoned to Denmark House over a defamation suit brought against them by NST. Since then we have forged a close friendship despite his having to relocate to Kota Bahru to be an aide to YB Datuk Husam Musa.
Bloggers and those who visit/comment on blogs have come to acknowledge Shieh’s dedication to justice and fairplay. In solidarity with Shieh’s wife Bariah and kids lets keep him and them in our thoughts and in our prayers.
Sheikh developed this icon in solidarity with Jeff and Rocky and this has appeared in the sidebar of most bloggers.
NST online has this:
KOTA BAHARU, WED:
THIRTY-EIGHT-year-old blogger,Syed Azidi Syed Aziz a.k.a Kickdefella, was arrested by police in Kota Baru at 5pm today for inciting the public to fly the Malaysia flag upside down.
The man or better known as Sheikh Kickdefella, was detained by a police team from Bukit Aman at his house in Kampung Demit near Kubang Kerian.
The man, who is an officer with the state-owned Perbadanan Menteri Besar Kelantan, was at home with his family when he was detained. It is believed he was detained under Sedition Act.
His wife Bariah Ishak, 38, said three policemen came to their house and arrested her husband. She said her husband was then brought to Kuala Lumpur.
The family is considering to hire a lawyer soon.
