An NGO said the “high-handed moral policing” in the Jais raid on Damansara Utama Methodist Church (DUMC), done without a search warrant, is unacceptable should not be tolerated.
“This kind of action reflects a high-handed approach of moral policing which is unacceptable and which will not be tolerated in multi cultural societies.
“Care should be taken when accusations of this nature take place without any prior discussion with the concerned parties or warning,” said Hamdan Adnan, deputy chairperson of human rights NGO Proham.
Hamdan also expressed concern over the role of the police in the raid.
“While the police have indicated that they merely accompanied Jais officers, the presence of the Police and their visibility implicates them as being part of the raiding party thereby leaving the Christian community without an independent enforcement unit to appeal too,” he said.
