The Star finally realised they had offended certain quarters (read: Muslim readers) with P. Gunasegaram's commentary piece “Persuasion, not compulsion” on the recent caning of three women for syariah offences.
Read their half-quarter (read: half-hearted) apology here.
And Dato' Rocky Bru says no need to file a police report..!
For context read my posting Kenapa Kita Patut Buat Laporan Polis.
By the way Dato', somebody already did. Read Mazidul's posting here: Persatuan Pengguna Islam Malaysia, PPIM telah membuat laporan polis di Ibu Pejabat Polis Daerah Sentul, Kuala Lumpur pada jam 2.20 petang tadi (23.02.10).
And another thing - don't bother searching for the stated piece “Persuasion, not compulsion” by P. Gunasegaram's on The Star's website 'cos they already removed it (read: Story file not found).
