MIC offers RM5,000 reward to find Indira’s ex-husband

KUALA LUMPUR, May 4 ― MIC is offering a RM5,000 reward to anyone who can locate Muhammad Riduan Abdullah, the former husband of M. Indira Gandhi who has absconded with their youngest child whom he unilaterally converted to Islam.

National MIC information committee member Subash Chandra Bose said his party was keen to help the police in their manhunt for the Hindu-turned-Muslim father of three, wanted for contempt of court.

“He is a fugitive of the law and he must be caught. We want to help the police in whatever way we can and we want to rope in our fellow Malaysians in this too,” he told Malay Mail Online this evening when contacted.

Subash who is also Selangor MIC Youth information chief said he wanted to help see justice done for Indira who has been separated from daughter Prasana Diksa the last seven years.

“If Riduan is law abiding, he would have come out of hiding himself. But it has been few days since the Federal Court verdict, and he is still in hiding somewhere. He is outrightly challenging the law.

“So, we are offering this reward to whoever who can track down Riduan and alert us or the police,” he added.

Last Friday, the Federal Court ordered the police to arrest Muhammad Riduan for contempt of court over his refusal to hand custody of Prasana to Indira in the high-profile child conversion case.

Earlier today, Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Khalid Abu Bakar announced the hunt for Muhammad Riduan, believed to still be in the country, started the same day he received the court order.

Indira was forced to separate from her younger daughter when Prasana was only 11 months old.

She was given full custody of all three children by the civil High Court, but her ex-husband was awarded custody by the Perak Shariah Court, triggering a bitter custody battle that drew national attention.
