KUALA LUMPUR: The removal of former deputy president Nasharudin Mat Isa from the PAS Syura Council stems from the party's uneasiness and sense of threat over the success of the Barisan Nasional government and Umno in uniting the Muslims, Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak said.
The Prime Minister, who recently returned from a trip to Gaza with a Malaysian delegation that included Nasharudin, added: “Whatever their (Syura Council) decision was based on, the timing of it created a perception that it was done due to his visit to Gaza.”
