The alleged screening of an x-rated programme o­n television yesterday was not done to sabotage the Non-Aligned Movement (NAM) summit or the Organisation of Islamic Conference (OIC) leaders informal meeting in Kuala Lumpur, said Information Minister Khalil Yaakob today.

According to a Bernama report, he said the ministry would investigate the claim and a police report has also been lodged regarding the matter.

The Malay Mail reported today that a pastor in Kuala Lumpur had chanced upon the screening, which lasted for more than an hour.

Jasoodasan Vathananikam said he had returned home from a prayer meeting at about 12.30am and switched o­n the television to catch the updates o­n the NAM summit.
