My comments : This is taken from a news report from the Middle East. There is a lot of this crap going on in these countries. There are serious psychological problems affecting the men in these societies. They are brought up on a value system which they think is derived from a 7th century desert culture where they think women must be wrapped up, shut away inside the houses and never seen in public. However this is the 21st century. Women are seen in public. Women are everywhere. They dont know how to handle it. 

Some of them want to catch the women for khalwat, for not covering up, for not staying indoors. Others simply want to grab the women. They dont know how to control themselves. This is what this news item says.

I believe this is what happens when you do NOT obey Allah's laws in the Quran and start imposing man made laws which are out dated and which confuses these people. They are terribly confused.

And in their societies, because they are conservative and everyone is supposed to be good, it becomes as a shock to them that their men can misbehave in this manner. So when these things happen (and they happen a lot)  they just cover things up. There are huge cover ups going on.

I remember when the Rear Admiral's case first came up circa 1997, plenty of his supporters  (who were religiously inclined) were absolutely shocked. The denial syndrome kicked in. 

"How can our 'pemimpin Islam' be caught up in something like this? This has to be a lie. This must be an UMNO conspiracy."

The same thing has been happening in the Catholic Church where other than serving at the altar, too many priests have been doing all sorts of things behind the altar, especially with the altar boys and girls. Sodomy and molest has been going on on an unprecedented scale. Church scandals have been uncovered in Europe, the US, Australia and elsewhere. So far - no one has stepped forward from the church in Malaysia. The odds indicate that the church in Malaysia cannot be exempted.

Covering things up especially out of shame to protect your "religion" is as old as the belief in imaginary unicorns. Every fake "religion" does it. This is the hallmark of false religion. 

The Khalwat Summons

Posted: 10 Dec 2012 09:29 PM PST

The usual PIS monkeys have been sending nasty comments to dispute the 'khalwat summons' issued by the PAS dunggus in Kota Bharu. Their arguments are "it is the Municipal Council not the Religious authority, it is fake" and other such crap.  

Today's Star has published a clearer picture of the khalwat summons. Here it is:


Under "Butir-butir kesalahan" the circled wording says ( you can read it for yourself too)  "berkucupan dalam kereta dalam gelap".  (I say kalau gelap macam mana dia boleh nampak orang berkucupan?)

The other words that are circled are pre typed. They say 'Pembangunan Islam'. The line says "Jabatan Pembangunan Islam, Majlis Perbandaran Kota Bharu Bandar Raya Islam". 

So this summons was not issued by the 

i. Jabatan Ternakan Kambing Jamnapari Yang Sudah Lari. Or the 
ii. Jabatan Dinar Emas Yang Tak Boleh Di Pakai Lagi. Or the 
iii. 'Jabatan Agihan Tanah Lot Kepada Menteri Besar Dan Isteri". 

It is none of those jabatan.  The summons was issued by the "Jabatan Pembangunan Islam, Majlis Perbandaran Kota Bharu Bandar Raya Islam".

The  "Butir-butir kesalahan" says  "berkucupan dalam kereta dalam gelap".

This cannot have anything to do with kambing, dinar emas or tanah lot. It has to be khalwat.

But dont change the subject ok. The issue here is that the summons was issued to two non-Muslims. That is the real issue.  Depan kereta, belakang kereta, dalam gelap, tepi jalan is not the issue. These are non-Muslims. 

And now (why am I not surprised) there is also an element of corruption that has been alleged.  

The Star reports that the two Chinese men had said that they were asked for a bribe first. Here is today's Star newspaper :

  • ..claimed at a press conference that the officer had asked RM500 for "settlement" before reducing it to RM200.
  • .. alleged that the officer only decided to issue them with summonses when the two men, aged 27 and 43, refused to pay him.
  • ..said the two men would not pay the fine even if it was reduced to 10sen.


I told you folks : No money no religion.
