LGBT activism akin to struggle for ‘animal rights’, says Penang mufti

PETALING JAYA: Penang mufti Datuk Seri Dr Wan Salim Wan Mohd Noor has likened lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) activism to fighting for “animal rights”, reports Sinar Harian.

According to the Malay daily, Dr Wan Salim said those who opposed the recent removal of portraits of LGBT activists at an exhibition in Penang had a “flawed understanding of freedom” in the country.
