The Penang State Islamic Religious Council (MAINPP) is investigating the claims of a same-sex wedding involving a Balik Pulau local and a foreigner.

While the identities of the women are not publicly made known, netizens alleged that the same-sex couple are both non-Muslims and are residing in the United States.

The Malaysian woman in question is allegedly a former ADUN in Pulau Tikus from 2013 to 2018.
