Sacked - Dr M, Mukhriz and three others axed from Bersatu

Malaysiakini
Dr Mahathir Mohamad, his son Mukhriz and three others have been expelled from Bersatu for sitting on the opposition bench during the Dewan Rakyat sitting on May 18.
The decision was conveyed to them by organising secretary Muhammad Suhaimi Yahya via a letter dated today, sighted by Malaysiakini.
The others sacked were Bersatu Youth chief Syed Saddiq Syed Abdul Rahman as well as Bersatu supreme council members Maszlee Malik and Amiruddin Hamzah.
Mahathir was the chairperson of Bersatu whereas Mukhriz was deputy president.
According to the letters, the decision to sack them was made based on Articles 10.2.2 and 10.2.3 of Bersatu's constitution which states that an individual's status as a member would be terminated with immediate effect if the member is found to have declared their intention to leave the party or has formally joined another political party.
Responding to media queries, an aide to Mahathir said the former premier had left his office in Putrajaya and had yet to sight a physical copy of the letter.
Rumours of a plot to remove Mahathir and his allies had been rife since earlier this month with a planned Bersatu supreme council meeting - which was later postponed - convening to allegedly endorse the decision.
Bersatu split in the aftermath of the Sheraton Move which saw party president Muhyiddin Yassin leading a majority of its leaders out of the party to form Perikatan Nasional.
Mahathir, who is mounting a no-confidence motion against Muhyiddin's prime minister's post, had remained on the opposition bench along with four other Bersatu MPs during the May 18 Dewan Rakyat sitting.
