Puzzled by the lack of arrest and apparent police inaction over the matter, Malay rights advocacy group Perkasa is repeating a police report that it lodged precisely a year ago over social media rumours that a church on Jalan Raja Laut was torched in December 2014.

"It is weird that when people slander the PM arrests are made, but when there are those that insult Islam, there are no arrests," said Perkasa Youth leader Irwan Fahmi Idris, adding that the police report will be made at the Dang Wangi District Police Headquarters at around 3pm today.

The rinse and repeat exercise, he explained, was to pressure the cops into taking action.

"We are doing this again to urge the cops to open an investigation paper, for the same issue seems to resurface every Christmas. So, we want the police to investigate the matter and forward it to the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC)," he told Malaysiakini .

Irwan said that they want to take the individual responsible for spreading the ill-intentioned rumours on social media to task.

This, he claimed, is because the same sensitive issue is being intentionally brought up by certain quarters each time the Christian celebration nears, in order to inflame the anger of both Christians and Muslims.
