PAS president Abdul Hadi Awang today had an audience with Perak ruler Sultan Nazrin Shah at Istana Kinta in Ipoh.
The car ferrying the Marang MP arrived at 10.50am.
Hadi was granted the audience by Sultan Nazrin after he wrote to the palace on Dec 10 to seek an audience to update His Royal Highness on political developments involving PAS.
On Friday, Perak PAS commissioner Razman Zakaria had made an apology to the sultan over a mistake by three Perak PAS assemblypersons for not showing up for an audience after they were summoned to do so on Dec 8.
Besides Razman, who is also Gunung Semanggol assemblyperson, the other two were Mohd Akmal Kamarudin (Selama) and Mohd Khalil Yahaya (Kubu Gajah).
Perak plunged into a political crisis after Menteri Besar Ahmad Faizal Azumu lost a motion of confidence in him at the state legislative assembly on Dec 4. He resigned from the post the next day.
Subsequently, Kota Tampan assemblyperson Saarani Mohamad from BN was sworn in as the 14th Menteri Besar of Perak on Dec 10.
Saarani is also Perak Umno chairperson.
Razman and Akmal were state executive councillors when Faizal was MB.
Saarani appointed five assemblypersons in his initial new exco line-up, four from Umno and one from Bersatu, but none from PAS.
Meanwhile, PAS secretary-general Takiyuddin Hassan said Hadi was very thankful for the audience granted by Sultan Nazrin and for the concern and wisdom expressed to him by His Royal Highness.
"... it was on religion, political and economic stability and the people's welfare,” he said in a statement issued after Hadi had finished his audience with the sultan.
Hadi did not speak to reporters outside the palace after the 40-minute audience.
