SUBANG JAYA: Huge crowds have gathered in and around the Seafield Sri Maha Mariamman Temple in USJ, Subang Jaya.

The crowds, who are mostly Malaysian Indians, have congregated  in support of the temple. 

The situation so far remains peaceful with the police keeping a watchful eye on the situation.

A huge traffic jam has developed around the area, with traffic reduced to a crawl. 

The road leading to the temple itself has been blocked off by the police and by crowds of temple supporters.

A Facebook post at 2307hrs (11.07pm) from Info Roadblock JPJ/POLIS says the traffic jam is horrible (teruk) on the LDP highway from Puchong heading to the Hicom/USJ toll plaza.

The post added, "Groups of people gathering in front of the Maha Mariamman temple USJ 25. Please use alternative routes to avoid jams."
