SHAH ALAM, Aug 28 — A group of Malay-Muslim protesters
claiming to be residents of Section 23 have threatened
bloodshed unless the state government stopped the
construction of a Hindu Temple. Amid chants of "Allahuakbar,"
the group also left the severed head of a cow at the entrance of
the State Secretariat here as a warning to Selangor Mentri
Besar Tan Sri Khalid Ibrahim. The "residents" said that the
construction of a Hindu temple in a 90 per cent Malay- Muslim
neighbourhood was insensitive because activities there would disrupt their lives. They claimed that the "noise" from the temple would
disturb their own praying, and that they would not be
able to function properly as Muslims. The group of 50 over protestors marched shortly after Friday prayers from the Shah Alam State mosque to the State Secretariat.
