Jaringan Melayu Malaysia (JMM) has reported social activist Marina Mahathir to the Federal Territories Islamic Religious Department (Jawi) to "liking" a Twitter post that was favourable of the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transexual (LGBT) community.
Federal Territories JMM chief Faizan Mohd Nor lodged a report against Marina asking Jawi to arrest Marina and check on her faith.
"By liking (the Twitter post), it means she is supporting it. Don't like if you don't support it. We (JMM) are worried because we are against the LGBT.
"We suggested (to Jawi) that they arrest Marina because she is a public figure, she is the daughter of a respected Malay leader," he told journalists after lodging a report at the Jawi office in Kuala Lumpur.
Faizan said he was worried that Marina could influence the public due to her stature. Marina is the daughter of former prime minister Dr Mahathir Mohamad.
The report was received by Jawi communications officer Nadia Zammil.
The tweet which was a subject of Faizan's complaint was by Twitter user Mrym.
Mrym in the Twitter posting had suggested that it would be good if LGBT couples were recognised as they then can adopt children who are discarded by straight couples.
However, Faizan said he was not complaining about the person who posted the tweet.
"We only focus on Marina because her name is known... she has a bigger impact on the people, youths and children.
"I would like to emphasise that Marina as the daughter of an eminent person should be a role model for youths and children," he said.- Mkini
