SUNGAI PETANI: Kedah state chairman for the Kesejahteraan Insan Tanah Air (Kita) party, Zamil Ibrahim, who was sacked by the party, questioned the move, which he claimed was invalid.
“I do not recognise the sacking because I want to know who are the members of the disciplinary committee, where was the meeting held, when was I asked to face the disciplinary committee and on what grounds was I sacked,” he said at the Kedah Kita office, here yesterday.
He was commenting on media reports that he and Penang Kita chairman Tan Tee Beng were sacked with immediate effect recently for making statements which adversely affected the party.
Zamil said he did not receive any letter in black-and-white stating that he was sacked from Kita.
He said, both he and the Kedah Kita committee vehemently rejected the sacking because since Feb 3 they had no longer recognised Datuk Zaid Ibrahim as party president.
He said five state chairmen and himself had held a meeting in Putrajaya on Feb 3 to reject Zaid’s leadership after Zaid’s statement to dissolve the party came out in the party blog on Feb 2. — Bernama
