: A woman from Sarawak today failed to obtain leave from the High Court here to initiate a judicial review to compel the Federal Territory Registrar of Converts to remove her name from the Register of Converts.
“The court dismissed the application on the grounds that the matter was not subject to judicial review based on Article 121 of the Federal Constitution. The woman, who was born on July 9, 1997, to a Christian mother and father, is seeking a declaration that the Administration of Islamic Law Act 1993 gives jurisdiction to the Registrar of Converts to declare a person no longer a Muslim.
In her supporting affidavit, the woman said that in early 2017, she met a Muslim Malay man who then proposed to her marriage and to facilitate the marriage, she converted to Islam on Aug 18, 2017, and was registered as a convert by the Federal Territory Registrar of Converts.
