Home Ministry to summon The Star's Editor-in-Chief


KUALA NERUS: The Home Ministry will summon The Star's Editor-in-Chief following an edition of the paper that was allegedly insensitive to the feelings of Muslims.

Its secretary-general Datuk Seri Alwi Ibrahim said the Ministry was disappointed that the newspaper displayed a photograph of Muslims performing the "terawih" prayers on the eve of Ramadan while the headline read ''Malaysian Terrorist Leader'' on its front page yesterday.
