PETALING JAYA - The Sultan of Selangor has ordered the Selangor Islamic Affairs Authority (Jais) to refer the matter of the bibles seized from the Bible Society of Malaysia (BSM) to the prosecutor, so the courts can determine if they should be returned or disposed of.

"This decree is in line with the minutes issued by the Attorney-General's Chambers that 'Jais has to act in accordance to the law on the issue of the seized bibles'," according to a statement issued by the Selangor Sultan’s private secretary Datuk Mohamad Munir Bani.
