Uthaya's Hindraf 'sacks' Waythamoorthy

The Hindu Rights Action Force (Hindraf) faction led by its founding leader P Uthayakumar has sacked his younger brother and current Hindraf splinter ‘chief’ P Waythamoorthy from the movement.

The decision was made during Hindraf's supreme council meeting on April 25, Uthayakumar told a press conference today in Kuala Lumpur.

Uthayakumar earlier claimed that his brother, who has now pledged support for BN, had hijacked the movementfrom him.

However, his sacking will have no legal implications as Waythamoorthy’s (left in photo, in orange) faction is the one that had managed to receive official recognition from the Registrar of Societies (ROS) on March 8.
