Deputy Federal Territories Minister Datuk Seri Jalaluddin Alias said Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL) has temporarily suspended the operations.
He added the move was to send a message that his ministry and DBKL will not tolerate any activities that insults religious and racial sensitivities.
In a statement, he further said the act has also been criticised by the public who felt the viral video was insulting the image of Islam.
“DBKL has carried out an investigation and the temporary suspension starts today,” he said, adding that enforcement will be carried out from time to time.
In the 45-second viral video, the woman introduced herself as “Siti Amira binti Abdullah” and claimed to be a Muslim and to have memorised 15 chapters of the Quran.
She then started to take off her headscarf and baju kurung as the audience cheered her on at Crackhouse Comedy Club in Taman Tun Dr Ismail.
