Malaysian Beauty Queen Exposes Temple Priest in Shocking Sexual Assault Scandal—Social Media Erupts!

Malaysian model and former Miss Grand Malaysia, Lishalini Kanaran, has sent shockwaves across the nation after revealing a harrowing account of sexual assault by a Hindu temple priest in Sepang, Malaysia. The explosive allegations surfaced after Lishalini bravely shared her traumatic experience on Instagram, detailing how a trusted religious figure violated her during a prayer ritual.

According to Lishalini, the incident occurred last Saturday at the Mariamman Temple. She explained that the priest lured her into a private room under the pretense of giving her holy water and a sacred thread from India—items supposedly reserved only for special devotees. Once inside, the priest began spraying a strong-smelling liquid on her face, making it difficult for her to open her eyes. He then shockingly demanded that she lift her Punjabi suit, insisting it was for her own good. When she refused, the priest became angry and, without warning, put his hand inside her blouse, touching her inappropriately.

In her emotional post, Lishalini recounted the priest’s manipulative words, claiming that if she complied, it would be a blessing since he was “serving God.” Paralyzed by fear, she couldn’t move or speak, describing the betrayal as the deepest wound—especially in a place she thought would bring her peace.

Lishalini’s ordeal didn’t end there. After escaping, she immediately informed her family and filed a police report. However, she claims the temple management was more concerned about the temple’s reputation than her trauma. Shockingly, she learned that previous complaints had been made against the same priest, but no action was taken.

Sepang district police chief Norazam Bahaman confirmed a police investigation is underway and that the accused priest, an Indian national, is currently missing. Police also revealed this was not an isolated incident—the priest reportedly used the same “holy water” tactic with other victims.

The scandal has ignited outrage among Malaysia’s Indian Tamil community and women’s rights groups, who are demanding swift justice. Social media has rallied around Lishalini, with thousands expressing support and sharing messages of strength. One user wrote, “What happened to you is not your fault. You are brave, and we stand with you.” Another commented, “A predator hiding behind holy robes must be exposed and punished—this cannot be ignored or forgiven.”

As the investigation continues, the public is watching closely, demanding accountability and safety for all devotees. What are your thoughts on this shocking case? Share your views in the comments below and stay tuned for the latest updates on this developing story.
