The Yang di-Pertuan Besar of Negeri Sembilan Tuanku Muhriz Tuanku Munawir today expressed his disappointment with the high number of Muslims involved in social problems and crime in the state
He said based on statistics, more than 90 percent of arrest for drug-related offences involved Muslims, especially in the Felda area in Jempol, while for rape cases, 64 of the 83 suspects arrested were Muslims
For incest cases, he said, nine out of 10 cases reported this year involved Muslims“Muslim teenagers in Malaysia are also known for illegal motorcycle racing that they are known as ‘Mat Rempit’, while the Daesh militant movement recruits Muslims who misinterpreted the values in Islam to fight in the name of the religion,” he said at the accreditation of members of the Negeri Sembilan Administrative and Legal Institution in Kuala Pilah today
The ceremony was also attended by Tunku Besar Seri Menanti Tunku Ali Redhauddin Tuanku Muhriz and Undang Luak Johol Datuk Muhammed Abdullah
However, Tuanku Muhriz expressed his confidence on the capability of the police and other enforcement agencies in addressing the problem
“We have to plan now even if the implementation of the programme will only be effective 10 years from now
“If nothing is done, the bad characters in the society will not change forever,” he added
He also called on the relevant departments to look into other needs that could improve the administration and management of Islam, including construction of new buildings and increasing the number of judges and officers for the Syariah Court in the state
“There has been no increase in the number of Syariah judges and officers for the past 10 years, while the cases are increasing,” he added
