A non-governmental organisation today filed an originating summons against SIS Forum (Malaysia) here to prohibit the organisation from using 'Sisters in Islam' as its name and identity.

Dewan Pemuda Masjid Malaysia's (Masjid Youth of Malaysia) claimed that based on SIS Forum's 'Memorandum Of Association', it was not stated that the organisation's objective was to look after the interest of Muslim women, but was more oriented towards secular feminism which supported the policy of equality between men and women.
