We refer to the malaysiakini report Unlawful to demolish places of worship .

In our press statement entitled 'Suhakam's concern over the demolition of places of worship' on which the above report was based, we made reference only to complaints received by Suhakam on the demolition of 11 places of worship. This should not be interpreted as meaning the total number of demolitions as indicated in a statement by Hindraf.

Suhakam's position on this matter, as highlighted in our press statement, is well-documented in our 2006 Annual Report on pages 87 to 88 which was based on the findings of a meeting held between Suhakam and members of several religious organisations on June 26, 2006.

I would, therefore, urge Hindraf and others to read the report and understand the position taken by Suhakam on this matter.

The writer is a Suhakam commissioner.
