KUALA LUMPUR: Umno has lifted its suspension against former supreme council member Datuk Mohamad Norza Zakaria from contesting the party polls.

The party’s management commit­tee at its meeting on May 29 decided to lift the ban against the former head of the Federal Territory Umno Youth, imposed by the party in March 2009 due to a corruption charge which he was facing at the time.
