Due process followedAkmal explained that the seven were removed following due process
He pointed to how PKR Youth had published the attendance records of all 73 leadership council members during the wing’s congress last month
The records, included in a report issued to all delegates during the congress, showed that the seven had not attended any meetings in 2019 and had not given any reasons
“We were transparent to publish (it) during the congress. No one actually questioned or tried to question the attendance (record list). No one challenged it
“So basically, the due process has been done,” he said
Akmal said that exco replacements will be discussed by the council at a meeting this Sunday
“According to the rules, the PKR Youth chief can decide the replacements,” he added. - Mkini
