The DAP central executive committee has established a three-member committee to resolve the dispute between chairperson Karpal Singh and Penang party deputy chief P Ramasamy.
Panel members are secretary-general Lim Guan Eng, parliamentary leader Lim Kit Siang and life advisor Dr Chen Man Hin.
"We want to resolve this matter speedily," secretary-general Lim Guan Eng told Malaysiakini after the meeting last night.
It is understood that Ramasamy, who is also the party deputy secretary-general, was present at the meeting.
Ramasamy had been engaging in a war of words with DAP chairperson Karpal Singh, alluding that the latter was a "godfather" in the party, during the run-up to the annual convention for the Penang chapter of the party last weekend.
Coming to Karpal's defence was Penang DAP committee member RSN Rayer who accused Ramasamy of acting like a "warlord" and alleging he had "begged" to be appointed Penang deputy chief minister II.
Following this, Rayer, who is also the Seri Delima state assemblyperson, claimed that he received a telephone death threat.
During the convention on Sunday, Ramasamy's supporters held anoisy protest outside the venue to condemn Rayer and Karpal.
Both Karpal and Ramasamy crossed swords again during their respective speeches.
