'Zakir Naik can enter Malaysia as not listed as terrorist by UN' - KDN

Zakir Naik's name does not contain in the list of the United Nations Security Council Resolution (UNSCR) 1988 and UNSCR 1267.

"The Immigration Department cannot deny him entry since he does not violate the country's law," said the KDN in a written reply to a question from M.Kulasegaran (DAP-Ipoh Barat) who asked why Zakir Naik was not denied entry by Malaysia since he was said to be involved in terrorism in several countries.

The Immigration Department blacklist all individuals who posed a threat to national security based on information received from enforcement agencies.
