Summary
The Penang State Fatwa Committee deferred its decision on the proposal to demolish and rebuild Masjid Jamek Bagan Jermal. The deferral remains until the Mosque Committee submits a Public Works Department certification on the safety status of the existing building. The Mosque Committee must also present a detailed mosque plan again at a meeting of the Fatwa Committee.
