Constitutionality of Jakim needs to be studied, says Farida


PETALING JAYA: The constitutionality of the Department of Islamic Development (Jakim) is something which needs to be studied in depth, says G25 group spokesman Datuk Noor Farida Mohd Ariffin (pic).

Stressing that she was speaking in her own capacity, Farida told The Star that Jakim, a public institution run on public money, should be open to criticism from the public.
