PKR's disciplinary board chairperson Ahmad Kassim says the party has decided to sack Santubong Youth chief Haziq Abdullah Abdul Aziz (photo, above).
According to Ahmad Kassim, the dismissal took effect immediately after the PKR political bureau meeting had ended.
"We have reviewed his reply on July 2, 2019, to our show cause letter this afternoon. The disciplinary board finds that he has violated the party's ethical rules and we have proposed that the political bureau dismiss his membership.
"Among the reasons is that he has made open allegations against party leaders on corrupt practices without evidence.
Ahmad declined to elaborate on the second reason for Haziq's sacking.
"We are waiting for the results of police investigations on other matters," he told a press conference at PKR headquarters today, referring to Haziq's allegations that he was in a sex video with party deputy president Mohamed Azmin Ali.
Azmin has denied being in the video, calling the allegations as a malicious plot to derail his political career.
Among the PKR leaders present at the meeting were party president Anwar Ibrahim, Fahmi Fadzil, Shamsul Iskandar Mohd Akin, Syed Husin Ali and Akmal Nasir.
However, during today's meeting, Anwar said Azmin was absent from the meeting.
"This is a matter decided by the disciplinary board. So the disciplinary board should not favour anyone.
Following Haziq's allegations, a few PKR leaders were in conflict with one another, with some demanding for his immediate sacking. - Mkini
