After Malaysia’s independence on 31.8.1957 unlike for all muslim places of worship almost all Hindu temples were not granted state land declared hindu temple reserves and gazetted as such. Especially over the last fifteen (15) years hindu temples in Malaysia are being demolished at the rate of one temple in every three weeks. This does not happen to any other place of worship in any other part of the world. Malaysia Boleh!. Malaysia truly Asia! Especially in the light of Malaysia 50th Year Golden Jubilee Independence Celebrations on 31.8.2007!

BRIEF FACTS:

1. From 22.2.2006 to 13.6.2007 (about one year and four months) we have recorded 79 Hindu temples to have been unlawfully unconstitutionally and with impunity demolished, given notice to be demolished, burnt down, relocated next to sewerage tanks deities removed etc. The details thereto are as per Appendix 1 which is enclosed herewith.
2. From 22.2.2006 to 26.6.2006, 99 police reports have been lodged in respect of the said Hindu temple demolishments. The details thereto are as per Appendix II which is enclosed herewith but not a single criminal has been prosecuted as of date.
3. From 22.2.2006 to 26.6.2006, we have written 74 letters and memorandums your goodselves and the relevant state authorities as per Appendix III which is enclosed herewith but are yet to receive a single response.
4. State authorities have no respect for the Constitution, Law Order and the courts.

A 427 page Public Interest Litigation vide Notice of Motion No: 44-152-2006 was filed at the Kuala Lumpur High Court on 18.12.2006 against the Chief Minister of Selangor and nine (9) other State authorities amongst others praying for a halt to Hindu temple demolishments until the Court’s determination thereto failing which contempt of court proceedings would follow and also a Declaration that the demolishment of Hindu temples in Malaysia is a criminal offence further to Sections 295 (defiling a place of worship), Section 296 (disturbing a religious assembly), 298A (causing racial disharmony), Section 441 (criminal trespass) of the Malaysian Penal Code and a violation of Article 11 of the Federal Constitution. The said Chief Minister and six (6) other very senior state authorities not only did not reply to the said High Court Notice of Motion and the supporting affidavit concerning the very serious legal and constitutional issues but were also not present at the honourable Kuala Lumpur High Court on 26.3.2007 nor were they represented by their Solicitors despite having been served the cause papers. This gives rise to the public perception that these state authorities have no respect for the High Court and the due process of the Law. On 6.4.2007 an appeal has since been filed with the honourable Court of Appeal. In the interim two (2) Contempt of Court proceedings have been filed at the honourable Kuala Lumpur High Court in respect of the demolishments of the Semenyih and Ampang Hindu temples and are pending hearing.

The latest demolishment being the Sri Kaliaman Hindu temple in Midlands estate, Shah Alam on 13.6.2007 without a valid High Court Order especially when the same is on a private land and the private developer I-Berhad used the Shah Alam police and City Hall enforcement officers and the Tiga Line Malay gangsters to demolish the same.

Prosecute CEO of I-Berhad for a start In the general public interest the CEO of I-Berhad and the relevant criminals must be prosecuted for their crimes in demolishing the aforesaid 110 year old Sri Kaliaman Hindu temple, Midlands estate, Shah Alam, Selangor.

PREVIOUS MEETING WITH AG’s CHAMBERS

Despite our legal advisers Mr.P.Waytha Moorthy and Mr.R.Kengatharan having had a meeting with five (5) Senior Federal Counsels from the Attorney Generals Chambers in Putrajaya sometime in June 2006 (over one year ago) these atrocities are allowed to continue and are continuing with impunity.

CONCLUSION

We respectfully wish to register our protest note that your goodselves have failed in your paramount public duties further to Article 145 of the Federal Constitution and read with Section 376 of the Criminal Procedure Code and as the guardian and custodian of the Malaysian Federal Constitution, law, order and public interest in Malaysia especially in protecting the weak and fear riddled minority Hindu community and have been allowing the majoritarian Malay muslim might to ride roughshot with impunity. We call upon your goodselves to act without fear or favour and prosecute these criminals based on overwhelming 416 page evidence consisting of the aforesaid 79 affected hindu temples, 99 police reports and 74 letters and memorandums and/or the proof adduced herein which is beyond a shadow of a doubt that is enclosed herewith.

Kindly let us have your official position with regards to this matter within
thirty (30) days from the date hereof.

Thank You.

Yours Faithfully,

P. Waytha Moorthy
