Mum seeks to cite religious officers for contempt in conversion case

A mother who was allegedly unilaterally converted when young has filed to cite five Johor state religious officers for contempt over their purported harassment of her.

The 25-year-old filed the committal application - targeting the five Kota Tinggi Islamic Religious Council Officers - at the High Court (civil jurisdiction) in Kuala Lumpur on April 12.

Back on March 29, her counsel Rajesh Nagarajan told Malaysiakini that she was allegedly harassed over her role as one of the 14 plaintiffs in a legal challenge against eight states’ unilateral conversion laws.
