A Muslim NGO wants the police to probe Ariff Alfian Rosli, who reportedly got married to a man in Ireland.
KUALA LUMPUR: The police have been urged to investigate gay medical student Ariff Alfian Rosli who reportedly married an Irish man over the weekend.
The report was filed by Muslim NGO, Kepong Islamic Youth Organisation (PBIK), with the Sentul police headquarters here this morning.
“We are making the police report in the name of the Malays against a Malay youth who disgraced the name of our country, religion and race.
“We want to pressure the Higher Education Ministry and government-linked companies which sponsors students for education abroad to ensure that the students’ Malayness and Islamic identity are strong,” said PBIK chairman Norizan Ali.
Ariff, 28, who was studying in the University College Dublin was initially reported to be missing. He is a former Petronas scholarship recipient.
Meanwhile, Malaysian ambassador to Ireland Ramli Naam confirmed that Arif’s whereabouts has been located but was unable to reveal the information as it was against Ireland’s Data Protection Act.
Norizan also said that PBIK is against any efforts to introduce the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transexual culture.
“Malaysian Muslims must adhere to the Islamic laws and our country’s laws even when they are abroad,” he added.
