Menurut seorang pegawai polis memaklumkan bahawa mereka di bawa ke ke Ibu Pejabat Daerah Dang Wangi, dengan kenderaan Black Maria untuk tindakan lanjut.
Selepas kenderaan itu beredar, aktivis pelajar Ekhsan Bukharee dan seorang peserta lagi kemudiannya ditahan selepas membuat pengumuman supaya orang ramai berhimpun di depan balai Dang Wangi sebagai tanda solidariti kepada 14 orang yang ditangkap.
Mereka dibawa IPD Dang Wangi dengan berjalan dalam keadaan bergari dan diiring dua anggota polis.
Penahanan tersebut berlaku selepas kira-kira 30 peserta 'flashmob' berkenaan menyeru orang ramai supaya turun ke himpunan membantah dakwaan berlakunya penipuan dalam pilihan raya umum lalu.
Mereka berdiri di hadapan gedung Sogo berhadapan Jalan Tuanku Abdul Rahman selama kira-kira 30 minit bermula sekitar jam 2.15 petang.
Sebahagian daripada mereka memegang plakad bertulisan 'Pengerusi SPR sila letak jawatan' dan 'Mari turun 22 Jun Blackout'.
Kira-kira
30 orang termasuk petugas media kini berada di hadapan ibu pejabat
polis ini untuk mengetahui perkembangan lanjut mereka yang ditahan.

Seorang peguam, New Sin Yew yang tiba di pintu masuk IPD Dang Wangi itu untuk menemui mereka yang ditahan polis.
Anggota polis yang berkawal di pintu masuk tidak membenarkan New masuk atas alasan beliau perlu menunggu arahan pegawai atasan sebelum dibenarkan berbuat demikian.
"Saya kenal Eddy secara peribadi dan saya di sini untuk menemui beliau," katanya.
Beliau kemudiannya dibenarkan masuk selepas bertegas mahu membuat laporan kerana dihalang mewakili mereka yang ditahan.-malaysiakini

16 Black 505 flashmobbers detained at Sogo...
The police have detained 16 participants of the Black 505 flashmob today, in a round-up that included a woman and a child.
The flashmob around the Sogo shopping centre vicinity was intended to build up to the Black 505 rally against electoral fraud on June 22 at Padang Merbok.
A group of 14 were first rounded up and hauled into a police Black Maria in front of Sogo at around 2.50pm.
Amongst them was Solidariti Anak Muda Malaysia’s (Samm) propaganda director Edy Noor Reduan.
An officer who identified himself as ASP Shuhaimi said the group will be brought to Dang Wangi police district headquarters.
After the Black Maria departed, two more were picked up - student activist Ekhsan Bukharee (above, handcuffed) and another participant - after they attempted to call on passers-by to gather at Dang Wangi in solidarity with the detained 14.
Two police officers were seen accompanying the duo to Dang Wangi on foot.

Lawyer initially barred
Earlier around 30 people participated in the flashmob that started at 2.15pm, the first of two planned.
They stood in front of the popular shopping centre at Jalan Tuanku Abdul Rahman for about 30 minutes holding placards reading ‘EC chairman step down’ and ‘Come down for the Jun 22 Blackout’.
After
the arrests, the remaining flashmob participants, along with the media,
gathered in front of Dang Wangi to get updates on the detainees.Student activist Adam Adli who had also been previously detained for attending a Black 505 rally, was present at the scene.
“I know Eddy, and I am here to meet him. A lawyer, New Sin Yew was not allowed to enter the station to meet with those detained,” he said.
The police who prevented New from entry said they were awaiting instructions from their superiors first. They eventually allowed him in after he said he said he would lodge a report for being obstructed from providing legal representation to the detainees.
The June 22 rally is being organised to protest alleged electoral fraud during the 13th general election and to call for the resignation of the Election Commission’s leaders.
Although they have reached a stalemate in negotiating with the KL City Council (DBKL) over the use of Padang Merbok for the rally, the organisers say they will proceed regardless.
The police however today warned that they will take action if the rally organisers do not have the “relevant permits”.-malaysiakini
