Due to overwhelming pressure from the general public, the Dang Wangi police district headquarters revealed yesterday that charges against two Al-Islam magazine's journalists who - on the pretext of checking out a claim that Muslims were being converted to Christianity - entered a Catholic church in Kuala Lumpur and took part in the holy communion, have been dropped.
The duo were investigated under Section 298A (1) of the Penal Code for causing disharmony, disunity or feelings of enmity, hatred or ill will, or prejudicing the maintenance of harmony or unity, on grounds of religion. In a letter to the complainant, senior investigating officer ASP Ananthan Rajoo stated that the Attorney-General's Chambers had decided not to press charges against them. The letter, dated Feb 12, stated that the case was referred to the deputy public prosecutor (DPP) and orders were given from them to take no further action (NFA).
So easy! Three words can close case! 1Malaysia kononnya! Double standards indeed!
