The Bersatu sackings have included MPs, Supreme Council members, and divisional chiefs. PETALING JAYA: Bersatu has sacked a total of 12 leaders, comprising four MPs, including opposition leader Hamzah Zainudin, and eight division chiefs. The other three MPs who were sacked were Gerik MP Fathul Huzir Ayob, Padang Rengas MP Azahari Hasan and Machang MP Wan Ahmad Fayhsal Wan Ahmad Kamal. Wan Fayhsal, who was suspended from the party in October, was also a Bersatu Supreme Council member. Another Supreme Council member who was sacked was Zainol Fadzi Paharudin, who is also the four-term Sungai Manik assemblyman. Zainol said the party also terminated the Bersatu memberships of a slew of division leaders. They are Yunus Nurdin (Libaran), Yunus Yusop (Tapah), Kamaruddin Majid (Teluk Intan), Hassuandi Hamzah (Larut), Ahmad Ishak (Gopeng), Abdul Aziz Ismail (Dungun), Ahmad Nasir Mid (Selayang) and Shafiq Halim (Hulu Langat). It is understood that all of them were sacked for breaching a provision of the party’s constitution under outlines Bersatu members must comply with the party’s constitution, code of ethics, and code of conduct. Bersatu has been fraught with infighting for months amid a leadership tussle between Muhyiddin and Hamzah, the party’s now-former deputy president. Two other MPs, Wan Saiful Wan Jan (Tasek Gelugor) and Saifuddin Abdullah (Indera Mahkota) had already been sacked from the party in October and January, respectively.
