Singapore's interior ministry on Monday ordered the repatriation of an Indian Islamic teacher for an exhortation against Jews and Christians, saying there was no room for such remarks in a multi-religious society. Nalla Mohamed Abdul Jameel, 47, was ordered to be sent home after he pleaded guilty at a district court to a charge of promoting enmity between different religious groups and was fined Sg$4,000 ($2,860). "Nalla has paid the fine. He will be repatriated," the Ministry of Home Affairs said in a statement.
