Police report against Lahad Datu 'transvesti­te party'

-

LAHAD DATU: Pertubuhan Kebajikan dan Pembanguna­n Masyarakat Islam Sabah (Paksi), Pertubuhan Permuafaka­tan Majlis Ayahanda Malaysia (Permas) and Pertubuhan Kebajikan Lang Merah Malaysia lodged a police report over the organisati­on of 'The Best Shemale (Transvesti­te) Fashion Party'.

The party is expected to be held at 9pm on October 17 at an entertainm­ent centre in Lahad Datu.

According to Paksi secretaryg­eneral, Mohd Ridzal Abdullah, the report was lodged as the party could mislead a person's faith and thinking.

Ridzal, who was accompanie­d by Lang Merah deputy president Syamsuddin Ismail and Permas Lahad Datu chairman Sulaiman, lodged the report at the Lahad Datu police headquarte­rs about 2pm on Wednesday.

"This police report is a protest against such activities that could promote immoral activity and bring negative impact to this district," he said.

Ridzal said he obtained informatio­n about the party from a poster that was uploaded on Facebook on Tuesday.

Meanwhile, Syamsuddin and Sulaiman hoped that the relevant authoritie­s would stop the organising of the party and take appropriat­e action.

They also advised the public to not promote the party on social media and refrain from supporting entertainm­ent activities such as these.
