A total of 27 men who failed to disperse after being ordered by the police to do so during the Nov 25 gathering organised by the Hindu Rights Action Force (Hindraf) were fined RM1,000 each by the Kuala Lumpur Sessions Court.
The men were fined after pleading guilty to the offence.
The Hindraf rally saw some 30,000 disgruntled Indian Malaysians taking to the streets in protest of the woes faced by the community.
Five of the movement's key leaders were later arrested under the Internal Security Act.
