POLICE are seeking the public’s help to locate M. Indira Gandhi’s daughter Prasana Diksa and her ex-husband Muhammad Riduan Abdullah.

Federal CID director Wan Ahmad Najmuddin Mohd said police have never stopped looking for the duo, in accordance with Ipoh High Court’s decision on May 30, 2014.

“Numerous efforts have been carried out, including asking for public’s help to find the two through a media release on January 28, 2018.

“Once again, police want members of the public who have any information on M. Indira Gandhi’s ex-husband and daughter to come forward,” he said in a statement today.

Last week, the Federal Court ruled that Riduan’s unilateral conversion of the couple’s three children to Islam was null and void.

The couple’s two older children, aged 20 and 19, are with Indira. Riduan fled with Prasana after a bitter custody battle. His whereabouts remain unknown.

Wan Ahmad also advised the public to stop playing up the issue, which could create tensions among the multiracial communities in the county.

After the apex court’s judgment, Inspector-General of Police Mohamad Fuzi Harun had vowed that police would track down Riduan and Prasana, 9, whom he had abducted nine years ago.

Indira’s other two children, Tevi Darsiny, 20, and Karan Dinish, 19, had reportedly told a daily that they could now proudly declare themselves as Hindus following the court decision.

On April 2, 2009, Riduan, then known as K. Pathmanathan, had converted the three children without Indira’s consent.

In 2016, Indira, a kindergarten teacher, reportedly said her two elder children had been practising Hindus since birth, and that their MyKad bore the names they were given at birth and stated their religion as “Hindu”. – February 7, 2018.
