| In Malaysia a court this week struck down the request of a Muslim woman to convert to Christianity, ruling that her only option is to appeal to the sharia (Islamic law) courts. The incident occurred barely two weeks after a Muslim woman married to a Hindu man was forcibly separated from him and jailed. In both cases, the courts have played to the galleries of the Islamic bumiputera (ethnic Malay) contingent. |
