(Bernama) -- Home Minister Datuk Seri Hishammuddin Tun Hussein will have an audience with the Sultan of Johor, Sultan Ibrahim Almarhum Sultan Iskandar, on Tuesday over a sensitive statement made by Waytha Moorthy.

Waytha Moorthy who fled overseas had questioned the position of the Malays and Malay rulers in a posting on the website Free Malaysia Today (FMT) on Oct 7.

Hishammuddin said that he would ask police to study the matter (Waytha Moorthy''s statement) as it involved the very sensitive monarchy institution.

Waytha Moorthy''s statement was to create hatred towards the rulers and to dupe the people''s thinking, he told reporters at Selayang Umno Aidilfitri gathering in Kuang, Rawang today.

He said the monarchy institution is the patron for all races and religions and not for one particular race.

The ministry would discuss with the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) since it would be a technical investigation.

(Bernama) - Johor Baru Umno Youth today called for Hindu Rights Action Force (Hindraf) chairman P Waytha Moorthy to be denied entry into the country for having allegedly disputed a statement made by the Sultan of Johor, Sultan Ibrahim Almarhum Sultan Iskandar.

Its head, Khalid Mohamad, said Waytha Moorthy's statement on the FreeMalaysiaToday website was inexcusable because it seemed like he was questioning the powers vested in the Malay rulers.

"We will ask the government to deny the Hindraf chairman entry into the country and to close down the FreeMalaysiaToday (FMT) website as it is a threat to national security," he said.

Khalid spoke to reporters after leading a peaceful demonstration by 200 people in a protest against the statement by the Hindraf leader, who is based in the United Kingdom, at the Larkin public transport terminal here.

He said the demonstration was to remind the people not to question the powers vested in the Malay rulers and the special privileges of the Malays enshrined in the Federal Constitution.

The sultan had on Oct 4 reminded all quarters not to question the powers of the rulers and the special privileges of the Malays as enshrined in the Federal Constitution.
