Sri Maha Mariamman Temple at Seafield, USJ25, Subang Jaya (Seafield temple) was once a lesser known temple but now well-known in Malaysia for the riots in the wee hours of 26th and 27th November, 2018.
Seafield temple was supposed to be relocated under a court order. There were resistance by some devotees. The developer, One City Development Sdn Bhd, was said to have used its law firm to, which was of course denied by the developer, engage thugs to help scare away the devotees. The thugs are apparently part of Malay gangsters. Being a hindu temple, the devotees are largely of Indian ethnicity. The clash became a 'racial fight' and hence it accelerated into national racial and unity issues. Too many questions remained unanswered. Why would One City that has the laws on its side engage thugs to create unnecessary chaos? An anonymous piece as stated below elaborate on the unanswered questions:
This wasn't about the temple. It was a shot across the bow to Tun Mahathir by some people in the political arena.
Who has the ability to mobilise some many Malay gangsters to attack an Indian temple?
The developer is not stupid. They have a court order and only need to enforce the order. No risk.

The law firm is not stupid. No risk to let the law takes its course.
Rogue lawyer? If he has RM150K to spend, he won't be stupid to do this. Someone gave him the money.
The gangster head? He is not stupid too ... attacking an Indian temple is a major task. He won't do this unless instructed by people higher up and he will be protected.
Whoever mastermind this wasn't looking for an outcome to evict the temple because it is so obvious, things will only get worse after the attack.
If this goes out of control and spread across the country, who loses politically? Who will immediately benefit politically? Who may be able to stay out of jail? Who may be able to escape being found out for their past deeds?

All said, there is much more to this. Person(s) who can afford RM150K will not be idiots. They thought it is worth a gamble. For them, that sum is only one bet at the casino table in Genting, Las Vegas or Macao.
Malaysians voted for a new government on 9th May 2018 after 60 years of single rule by Barisan Nasional (BN). Tun Mahathir is the current prime minister of Pakatan Harapan government in Malaysia. BN coalition comprises 3 major parties, namely United Malay National Organisation (Umno), Malaysian Indian Congress (MIC) and Malaysian Chinese Association. Due to its ethnic composition, BN is inevitably racially driven.
Another anonymous piece, if proven true, explained further:
What’s interesting is that Azeez Rahim (a parliamentarian and supreme council member of Umno charged for corruption recently) of Tabung Haji, his brother is a director of MCT Bhd (whose subsidiary, One City owns the land where the temple is situated) and Tabung Haji owns close to 10% of MCT a listed co which is owned by Philippines Ayala Corp.
Tan Sri Dato Barry Goh Ming Choon (director of MCT) is the partner of T Mohan (MIC youth leader and suspected to have allegiance with Indian gangsters), strong man of Puchong in Mega Tech college which has its address in MCT. The other coincidence is that Azeez has his car wash business in Subang...no rocket science required to unravel the whole story.
The pieces seem to be falling into place with another piece by Finance Twitter as follows:
Its a rather long piece explaining the relationship of Malay gangsters 'Tiga Line' and 'Double 7' with Umno, in particular Papagomo, the blogger and Tiga Line gangster who is supported by Umno. Papagomo has been arrested in relation to Seafield temple riots. It further explains why Umno leaders (Zahid Hamidi and Najib who are both charged in courts for corruption and money laundering) wants to create racial disorder in Malaysia with a hope of coming back into power.
