Those who insult religions could soon face heavier penalties pending an amendment to the Penal Code. 

The De-facto religion minister says the proposed amendments will be tabled in Parliament next month.

Datuk Seri Dr Mujahid Yusuf Rawa had earlier hinted at penalties of 7 years jail or a RM100k fine.

The BN sec-gen's woes are not over - after his controversial Semenyih by-election campaign speech, UMNO has now distanced itself from Datuk Seri Nazri Aziz’s statement. 

UMNO clarified it respects the existance of vernacular schools in M'sia and does not support those who would want them abolished. 

BN component parties MIC and MCA have also demanded for Nazri to be sacked.
