📄 News Story (100 words) KUALA LUMPUR – A 58‑year‑old mother of three has filed a judicial review after the National Registration Department (JPN) required her to obtain a Shariah court letter confirming her religious status.
Court Review
The woman, who converted out of Islam in 1993 via deed poll and later married a Hindu man, argues the requirement is irrational and procedurally flawed. She is seeking a certiorari order to quash JPN’s decision and a mandamus order compelling issuance of a new identity card. Her case highlights the legal complexities faced by Muslims attempting to leave Islam in Malaysia, where MyKad designations remain difficult to alter.
