A Muslim non-governmental organization (NGO) filed in a police report over an article entitled “Cabaran Gerakan Pembaharuan” (Challenges Confronting Reform Movement) published by Malaysiakini on April 4.

Negeri Sembilan Sofa Foundation deputy president Yusri Mohamad lodged a police report at Dang Wangi police district headquarters against former Perlis mufti Dr Mohd Asri Zainul Abidin for writing the article that allegedly insulted Malay rulers.

Besides Negeri Sembilan Sofa Foundation, other NGOs were also present when lodging the police report namely Pertubuhan Kebajikan al-Jamiatul Khairiah, Klang Islamic College Alumni Association (ALKIS), Madrasah Islamiyah Malaysia Union (ITMAM), Pertubuhan Muafakat Sejahtera Masyarakat Malaysia (Muafakat), Integrated Muslim Associations of Selangor (IMAN) and Sinar Damsyik Association (Persidam).

Police reports were also found in other states against Malaysiakini and Asri.

I wonder if they will also lodge a police report against MT for spelling "rulers" with small letter "r"???

I have many rulers at home too and they are only good for scratching my back.

Running dogs making a fuss on petty matters. Nothing better to do.
