Using the symbol of a white dove with a hibiscus backdrop, the rally will start in front of the Sogo shopping complex here at 7am and make its way to Dataran Merdeka. 

Speaking to Bernama and Radio Televisyen Malaysia in a special interview at Parliament House today, Mujahid said that he had extended invitations to Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad, Cabinet members and Opposition leaders to attend it. 

The gathering is organised to show solidarity among Malaysians and deplore the shootings in Christchurch, New Zealand last Friday by a white supremacist which left 50 Muslims dead. — Bernama
