M`SIA: POLICE TO INVESTIGATE PEOPLE INSULTING PROPHET MUHAMMAD ON WEBLOG
KUALA LUMPUR, Dec 27 (Bernama) -- Police will investigate the people behind
a weblog said to be full of insults to Prophet Muhammad.
Deputy Inspector-General of Police Ismail Omar said this after
Utusan Malaysia carried a report about the weblog on its front page Saturday.
"The act (insulting the Prophet) can cause anger and offend especially the
Muslims and Malays. It also provokes religious and racial conflicts," he said.
He said that from the legal perspective, it was an offence under the
Sedition Act and the police would immediately investigate the owner and writer
of the weblog.
According to the report, the weblog used pictures and drawings purportedly
belonging to a Malay woman said to be open-minded but Utusan Malaysia believed
that the woman's photograph and name had been used by another party.
