00:00 The Court of Appeal has ruled that the conversion of single mother Lo Siu Hong's three children
00:08 to Islam was unconstitutional. A three-member bench chaired by Justice Hadar Yassay Ismail
00:13 also struck down a provision in the Perlis State Enactment that allows for unilateral
00:18 conversion. Lo's children were unilaterally converted to Islam by their father in Perlis
00:24 in 2020. Subsequently, Lo took the matter to court, seeking a declaration that a provision
00:30 in the state enactment that allows a parent to unilaterally convert minor children was
00:35 unconstitutional. She also wanted a declaration that her twin daughters, age 15 and son, age
00:42 12, were still Hindus. Last May, the High Court ruled that her children were still Muslims
00:49 despite being unilaterally converted. Lo then filed an appeal. Today, the Court of Appeal
00:56 ruled that the High Court judge erred in law by not adhering to the federal court's 2018
01:01 ruling in the Indira Gandhi case. In Indira's case, the Apex Court unanimously ruled that
01:08 converting children to a different religion required the consent of both parents, even
01:13 if one parent converted to Islam. Hadar Yassay said in Lo's case, she did not consent to
01:18 her children's conversion to Islam. Amira Huda, FMT News.
