PETALING JAYA: Part of the 101-year-old Sri Muneswarar Kaliamman Hindu temple at Jalan P. Ramlee is being demolished by Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL) on Sunday after the temple authorities and DBKL reached an impasse in their year-long negotiations to remove the temple from DBKL’s reserve land.
MIC Youth chief T. Mohan, PKR's S. Jayathas and six others, who tried to stop the demolition were detained and taken to the Dang Wangi police station for obstructing DBKL officers from carrying out their duties, said Dang Wangi OCPD Asst Comm Zainuddin Ahmad.
