Hindu Sangam denies meeting cow-head protestors, wants them charged

SHAH ALAM, Sept 4- Malaysia Hindu Sangam said today it had no intention of meeting the cow-head protesters and have called on authorities to take immediate action against them.

It’s advisor Datuk A. Vaithilingam said the name of the national body for Hindu affairs had been misquoted in the press as having met the cow-head protestors.

“There were no such meetings,” he said today.

He said the protestors who gathered last Friday at the state secretariat to protest the relocation of a temple with a severed cow head had insulted Hindus who regard the animal as sacred.

Vaithilingam said they were dismayed at Home Minster Datuk Seri Hishamuddin Hussein for meeting the protestors and for being photographed with them in the press. However, they are relieved the minister is now also calling for the protestors to be charged in court. - Minsider
