UPDATE:
Three MCMC officers visited Malaysiakini office in Bangsar Utama at 2pm to question editor-in-chief Steven Gan, who had yesterday said the website would NOT remove the videos.
At the 45-minute session, Gan told MCMC investigation officer Mohd Shukri Jamaluddin that Malaysiakini was carrying out its job as a media organisation in reporting key news events.
“I told them we did not violate the Act as we did not intend to ‘annoy’ anyone by uploading the videos, but to bring the cow-head protest to public attention,” he said.
The videos cited were the ‘Temple demo: Residents march with cow’s head’ and ‘Hisham: Don’t blame cow-head protesters’.The second video is on Home Minister Hishammuddin Hussein’s meeting two days ago with the residents who staged the protest and his subsequent press conference. Read here for more

Wow. And we thought UMNO had the Polis, AG and MACC in their bags only. Not exactly correct. They now seem to add MCMC to their arsenal to pull all the tricks on the Malaysian rakyat. Good try. The buck would stop during the by-elections and the next big GE. This same old bag of tricks would not work anymore since March 08.

....intend to annoy people especially indians ....!
where are the 'annoyed indians' who want these videos to be REMOVED !!???
The solution to this cow head problem is to ‘honour’ all the participants of the protest, as Datuks and the Organiser, a Tan Sri – also an appointment as a Special Adviser to Najib on ‘religious’ affairs. Najib should also give them each RM1m in cash, a mansion, a Merc and a third or fourth wife as desired, from Mongolia or elsewhere. The Indians in Section 23 should be removed to a settlement camp, indoctrinated and educated in the positive aspects of the Islamic faith; they will then readily accept Islam and become fanatical converts. These converts can then be resettled in Section 23 and another mosque can be built in place of the Indian temple. The whole community of Section 23 can then live happily ever after together, indulging in perpetual incest amid religious ‘divinity’. Every Friday after prayer, they can all in tandem carry a cow’s head in pairs, and walk down to another Govt. building to lodge a protest. Long Live 1Malaysia! ‘Take Beeer’! Tiger, Heineken or Calsberg?
...as expected ...16 candle-peace- marchers got arrested BUT not the cow-head protesters !!!!!!??????
