| KUALA LUMPUR, 31 JANUARY, 2012: A pig head was found at the entrance of Nurul Iman Mosque at Batu 18 Rawang, Selangor, early this morning, reported Malaysiakini. According to the report, the police were contacted and arrived at 7:30am and left about two hours later with the pig head for further investigation. PKR Rawang assemblyperson Gan Pei Nei said the pig head was found at 5am by a mosque committee member when the main gate was being opened. Gan lambasted the action as offensive to religious sensitivities and suspects that it was politically motivated seeing as the general election is approaching. "The general election is getting closer and someone is trying to cause problems," she said. She urged the police to speed up their investigation and bring the criminal to justice. Meanwhile, Selangor state exco member Ronnie Liu, who also visited 48-year-old mosque, said that Gan will represent the state government at the mosque committee meeting tonight. He said she will report on the meeting as well as pass on any requests the committee had for the state. He condemned the incident as provocative but was glad that the committee did not overact. |
