00:00Jilutong MP RSN Rea has denied any involvement in organising or promoting a purported rally
00:07at the site of a recently demolished Hindu temple in Kangapolis this Sunday.
00:13Rea said his name, photograph and position as Penang Hindu Endowment Board Chairman
00:18had been used without permission in promotional materials circulating online.
00:23In a Facebook post, he denied any involvement in the creation of the poster.
00:29Rea urged those behind the poster to withdraw it immediately
00:33and maintain that disputes involving places of worship should be resolved through legal channels.
00:38The poster advertised a Prehimpunan Merah Mahakali Rally this Sunday
00:43and listed Rea, activist Arun Dorasamy and lawyer Siti Qasim as purported speakers.
00:50Rea had previously criticised the demolition of the Sui Verah Mahakalyaman temple
00:55and called for a more measured approach if it had breached regulations.
01:00The temple was reportedly demolished by Perlis authorities on August 20th,
01:05with the state government maintaining that it stood on state land without a permit.
01:09It added that multiple engagements had taken place prior to the demolition.
