Kuala Lumpur, January 13: Unidentified persons hurled stones at a Gurudwara here damaging a front window of the building, adding to religious tensions over a series of attacks on churches in this Muslim-majority country.
Police today termed the incident as the handiwork of “naughty youngsters” and said they are looking into the matter. Several volunteers were inside the Gurudwara when stones were thrown at around 6.45 p.m., they said, adding no one was hurt in the incident.
A nearby Telecom building was too pelted with stones, they said. Several volunteers inside the Gurudwara heard some noise and went out to check but they found no one, Gurudwara president Gurdial Singh was quoted as saying by the local daily New Strait Times.
Singh was quoted in media as saying that some of their holy scriptures use the word “Allah” to refer to God.
