"He will be released on Oct 27 and will certainly attend the Parliamentary sitting," he said when contacted by Bernama.
Tian Chua was found guilty by the Sessions Court on Jan 23, 2014 for refusing to comply with the police order to leave the Pulapol area in Jalan Semarak on April 29, 2012 at 2.30pm, a day after the Bersih 3.0 rally.
