PETALING JAYA- A defiant Datuk Dr Hasan Ali continues to blast PAS, this time accusing his former party of being infested with “a group of parasites” who betrayed the party’s struggle for Islam.
PAS, meanwhile, seeks to quell the uncertainty surrounding the fiasco by presenting its candidate to replace Dr Hasan’s vacated state executive councillor post to Selangor Mentri Besar Tan Sri Abdul Khalid Ibrahim today.
Dr Hasan, the former Selangor PAS commissioner, claimed there was a “group of parasites” who would oppose whenever he raised issues relating to alcohol and apostasy among Muslims in Selangor, he was quoted as saying in Sinar Harian.
Dr Hasan, however, did not name who the “parasites” were.
He said he would not appeal his sacking from the party as he could not see himself staying on in the party with the group continuing to betray his struggle to fight for Islam.
Dr Hasan claimed the “parasites” preferred to please “others” and support their struggle rather than the party’s own struggle for Islam.
Dr Hasan was sacked from PAS for acting against the party’s interest and has been given time until Feb 7 to appeal his removal.
PAS secretary-general Datuk Mustafa Ali said Dr Hasan’s replacement could even attend his or her first state exco meeting as early as this Wednesday, if there was no issue with the candidate.
Speaking to party organ Harakah Daily, Mustafa said the PAS leadership had discussed Dr Hasan’s replacement, and party president Datuk Seri Abdul Hadi Awang is scheduled to meet Abdul Khalid today to present the candidate’s name.
Favourite to replace Dr Hasan is Meru assemblyman Dr Abd Rani Osman, although Bangi assemblyman Dr Shafie Abu Bakar and Sijangkang assemblyman Dr Ahmad Yunus Hairi have also been touted as possible replacements.
