DPM calls for stern action against parties responsible for latest video allegedly insulting Islam

Deputy Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin has called for stern action to be taken against the culprits behind the video allegedly tarnishing the image and sanctity of Islam.

"The Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission and the Home Ministry must act fast to prevent a recurrence," he said in reference to the video.

Muhyiddin said the action by certain quarters should not happen in a country that is enjoying the peace.

"This shows that there is no deep understanding within society. Muslims do not insult the religion of non-Muslims such as Christianity and Hinduism.

"But non-Muslims are insulting our religion," he said at the breaking of fast with orphans of Rumah Amal Kasih Bestari here Tuesday.

An video uploaded to YouTube entitled 'Suatu Hari di Hari Raya' depicted a man performing ablution and doing the same to three dogs with the 'Takbir Raya' and the Selamat Hari Raya song by Datuk M. Nasir as background music.
