Hishamuddin: Temple demonstration was bipartisan, evidence with me

KLUANG, Sept 6 — The ‘cow’s head’ protest against a temple relocation proposal in Shah Alam has surpassed political consideration as it involved members the opposition as well as Barisan Nasional (BN), said Home Minister Datuk Seri Hishammuddin Hussein.

He said the Home Ministry knew the numbers of Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR), PAS and BN members involved in the protest and would divulge the information when the time was right.

“The protest has surpassed political consideration. It is a localised issue,” he told reporters after presenting aid to Kampung Melayu Niyor residents here today.

He was commenting on the chaotic dialogue session between Shah Alam’s Section 23 residents and Selangor Menteri Besar Datuk Khalid Ibrahim over the proposed relocation of a temple from Section 19 to the Muslim majority area in Section 23. - + selanjutnya
