Judgment from 14 October 2013. Malaysian Court of Appeal issued its judgment in Menteri Dalam Negeri v Titular Roman Catholic Archbishop of Kuala Lumpur, in which it ruled on whether a state prohibition on the use of the word ?Allah? by a Roman Catholic publication was constitutional. In a decision which exposes the pervasive institutional discrimination against non-Muslims in Malaysia, the Court held that the imposition of the prohibition did not amount to a breach of the constitutional rights to freedom of speech and religion.
