PETALING JAYA: Ismail Sabri Yaakob has brushed off speculation that he has been suspended from Umno, dismissing it as a mere rumour.
He said he is still serving the party as one of its vice-presidents.
“I don’t think I have been suspended. It was not raised at the Supreme Council meeting,” The Star quoted him as saying.
The former prime minister said this in response to rumours that disciplinary action has been taken against him after he questioned the council’s decision to sack and suspend several Umno leaders.
Former Rembau MP Khairy Jamaluddin and former Selangor Umno chief Noh Omar were sacked last month for breaching party discipline during the 15th general election.
Former vice-president Hishammuddin Hussein and former information chief Shahril Hamdan were suspended for six years.
Ismail had expressed his disapproval over the dismissals and suspensions, saying they did not comply with the legal process. - FMT
