PUTRAJAYA, Feb 21 — Home Minister Datuk Seri Saifuddin Nasution Ismail said three leaders of local Islamic non-governmental organisations (NGOs) listed by the US Federal Bureau of Investigation’s (FBI) Terrorist Screening Center were not found to be involved in any extremism.
He said this was based on the Royal Malaysia Police’s (PDRM) previous screening prior to their involvement in the Ops Ihsan movement to manage humanitarian aid delivery to Gaza, Palestine, involving 359 individuals from 53 NGOs groups.
“Before we initiated the operation, we conducted thorough checks to ensure there were no issues when they carried out the operation in Gaza.
“Based on our examination, all NGOs involved in Operation Ihsan have been scrutinised for security, including police records, and none of them are associated with violence issues,” he told reporters during a press conference held here today.
