One student taking part in the protest said, the move was intended to get a response from the university’s Vice-Chancellor, Prof Datuk Dr Mohd Amin Jalaludin, regarding the memorandum they sent demanding that the charges against eight of their fellow student leaders be dropped.

At around 2.30pm, the students handed over a memorandum to Universiti Malaya Deputy Vice Chancellor, Prof Dr Mohd Hamdi Abdul Shukor on Mohd Amin’s behalf.
