Malaysian police raided the office of the Bersih 2.0 Yellow Shirt movement ahead of the planned anti-Najib rally on Saturday.
The law enforcement agencies sad the raid was in line with a law prohibiting acts undermining parliamentary democracy, the Malay Mail reported.
Mandeep Singh, a leader of the Bersih 2.0 movement, said the office in Petaling Jaya was raided and the police took possession of the belongings and documents.
"Bukit Aman in our office. Want to 'rampas' (confiscate) all our 'barang' (things)," he tweeted.
Saturday's rally against the government is the toughest challenge Prime Minister Najib Razak has faced in recent times. Opposition patriarch Mahathir Mohamad has also asked Malaysians to join the massive anti-government rally on Saturday. A defiant Najib has said street protests cannot unseat him, referring to the Bersih 5 or 'Yellow Shirt' demonstration seeking his government's ouster.
Kuala Lumpur is preparing to deal with clashes on Saturday as outfits supporting Najib and his government under the 'Red Shirts' umbrella have pledged to come out into the streets to confront the Yellow Shirts.
With both the Yellow Shirts and the Red Shirts organizing protests in the Dataran Merdeka in the heart of Kuala Lumpur, the city will be under lockdown on Saturday. The Red Shirts say the Bersih is trying to remove a legally elected government and that the opposition is serving 'foreign agenda'.
Former prime minister Mahathir said Malaysians should show dissatisfaction with the Government by taking part in this demonstration by Bersih in Dataran Merdeka.
"Malaysia is now in distress because (Prime Minister) Datuk Seri Najib's administration has caused the country to rake up billions of ringgit in debts that are unable to be paid by the Government and the country," Mahathir said.
In September the police accused Bersih 2.0 chairman Maria Chin Abdullah of trying to topple the government.
