The Federal Territory PAS has called off its protest - part of a nationwide demonstration - slated for this afternoon, against Prime Minister Najib Tun Razak's wife, Rosmah Mansor.
In a statement, Federal Territory PAS Youth information chief Fadhil Osman said the party would use "another approach" to express its dissatisfaction.
According to him, a meeting would be arranged with the Malaysian Islamic Development Department (Jakim) and a memorandum would be submitted to the King soon.
The self-proclaimed First Lady of Malaysia had come under fire for promoting the recently held Islamic Fashion Festival (IFF), which Muslim groups said was an insult to Islam and the Prophet Muhammad.
The event also drew flak from social-networking site Facebook users, where the photo of one of the models wearing a revealing outfit which depicted a reverse image of the Prophet's name in Arabic across the chest was widely circulated. - FMT
