‘No compromise’: Selangor exco backs police probe into drug stash at Klang temple

Selangor state government reaffirms stance against using places of worship for criminal activities, according to V. Papparaidu, chairman of the Selangor Human Resources and Poverty Eradication Committee. The committee took note of media reports about drugs discovered at an unregistered place of worship in Klang during a police operation from October 13 to 19.

Papparaidu emphasized the importance of respecting places of worship and preventing their misuse for illegal purposes, stating that such actions undermine the sanctity of religious institutions and communities. The state government stressed that the case is about enforcing the law and ensuring public safety, not targeting any particular community or religion.
