Lawyer Rajsurian Pillai told FMT that the pair would give their statements in Bukit Aman at 3pm today.

Malaysiakini meanwhile reported him as saying the investigation is being carried out by the classified crimes investigation unit under the criminal investigation department (CID).

Yesterday, Bukit Aman CID director Shuhaily Zain said the number of reports received on the event had risen from 21 to 188.

Selangor police chief Hussein Omar Khan said the case is being probed under Section 298A of the Penal Code for causing disharmony, hatred or ill will on the grounds of religion, and Section 233 of the Communications and Multimedia Act 1998 for the improper use of network facilities.

Last week, religious affairs minister Na’im Mokhtar urged PSM to cancel its plans for the workshop, themed “Pride Care: Queer Stories & Sexual Health Awareness”.

He said the organisation of such a programme, even if held behind closed doors, clearly challenged societal norms and the religious values upheld by the majority.
