Bersatu To File Notice To Vacate Seats Of 6 Turncoat Mps

---

Bersatu is set to file a notice to the Dewan Rakyat seeking to vacate the seats of six of its MPs who chose to back Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim.
Party deputy president Ahmad Faizal Azumu said the decision was made during the supreme council meeting on Tuesday.
Following this, he instructed Bersatu secretary-general Hamzah Zainudin to issue the notice, in adherence to the party constitution.
“I instructed the secretary-general to take the necessary action in line with the party constitution, against the six MPs who are supporting the prime minister.
“This is important because we are not like Umno, which sacks members as it wishes. We have a party constitution to follow, but I have asked the secretary-general to expedite the process (of notice submission),” Utusan Online quoted Faizal (above) saying.
Earlier this week, Dewan Rakyat speaker Johari Abdul said he has yet to receive any notification from Bersatu concerning the status of its six MPs who had pledged support to Anwar, following the party’s amendment of its constitution recently.
The six MPs are Zulkafperi Hanapi (Tanjong Karang), Zahari Kechik (Jeli), Iskandar Dzulkarnain Abdul Khalid (Kuala Kangsar), Syed Abu Hussin Hafiz Syed Abdul Fasal (Bukit Gantang), Suhaili Abdul Rahman (Labuan) and Mohd Azizi Abu Naim (Gua Musang).
In April, the Registrar of Societies approved an amendment to the Bersatu constitution, enabling the party to act against the six members. Under the newly amended constitution, these lawmakers must immediately vacate their seats. - Mkini
