Mosque Security Under Review: Jawi to Reassess SOPs After TTDI Incident
The federal territories Islamic religious department (Jawi) has announced plans to reassess the standard operating procedures (SOPs) for security at mosques, following a disturbing incident at the At-Taqwa mosque in TTDI. The incident involved a mentally ill man who trespassed and disrupted worshippers, raising concerns about the safety and security of mosque-goers. In response, Jawi will conduct a thorough review of existing security protocols to identify areas for improvement and implement more effective measures to prevent similar incidents in the future. This move is expected to enhance the overall security and well-being of the Muslim community, particularly during prayer times. With the increasing importance of mosque security, Jawi's initiative is a step in the right direction, prioritizing the safety and peace of mind of worshippers. Key initiatives may include enhancing CCTV surveillance, improving emergency response plans, and increasing collaboration with local law enforcement agencies to ensure a safer environment for all. By reassessing and strengthening security SOPs, Jawi aims to provide a secure and peaceful space for the Muslim community to practice their faith.
