As many as 44 NGOs linked to Selangor Islamic Religious Council (Mais) today urged the police and the Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) to take stern action against blogger Steadyaku47, for allegedly criticising and slandering Selangor ruler Sultan Sharafuddin Idris Shah.
Among these NGOs were Persatuan Wadah Pencerdasan Umat Malaysia (Wadah), Persatuan Ahli Falak Selangor, Momogun Muslim Malaysia, Muslim Care Malaysia Society, Persatuan Jaringan Islam Global Masa Depan, Persatuan Halaqah Al-Quran Selangor, and Persatuan Belia Masjid Selangor.
Spokesperson for the group, Nik Mohd Yusoff Nik Ismail, said the criticisms made by Steadyaku47 – the pen name of Hussein Abdul Hamid – in his Dec 13 article titled “WTF does this Idris of Selangor think he is doing,” were made in an uncivilised manner.
Nik Mohd Yusoff said although the writer of the blog was believed to be operating from Australia, this does not mean the police cannot investigate him and work with Interpol to track him down and take appropriate action.
“The position of the institution of the Malay rulers must be respected by everyone as embedded in the Federal Constitution. The accusations made by the blogger Steadyaku47 about Sultan Sharafuddin are also defamatory," he added.
