KUALA LUMPUR: Controversial preacher Dr Zakir Naik (pix) is not getting any "special treatment" although the Indian national has Malaysian Permanent Resident (PR) status, says the Home Ministry.  

In a written answer to Teresa Kok (DAP-Seputeh), it said there was no reason to arrest Dr Zakir for alleged terrorism as he had not violated any Malaysian rules or laws.
