Reacting to the probe against three women behind a forum on Malay women and discarding the hijab last Saturday, Latheefa said it takes more than a piece of cloth on the head to reflect good behaviour and that women should be free to discuss the choice of their appearances. “Do not reflect Muslims to be so fragile and obsessed over physique, hair and sex,” the Lawyers for Liberty executive director wrote on Facebook today.
On Monday, the minister in charge of Islamic affairs Datuk Seri Mujahid Yusof Rawa issued a statement on Facebook that an investigation was being carried out by the Selangor Islamic Religious Department against three women panellists of the forum that was held in conjunction with a book launch., legal professional and social media commentator Dian Sofia, and journalist and women’s rights activist Mohani Niza.

We are moving closer to the cave somewhere in Afghanistan while the rest of the world finding ways to land boosters back on earth after launching them to space. Why do men need to decide for women?
