Pas Muktamar: Members told to brace for possibility of being expelled from Pakatan

(NST) – Pas deputy spiritual adviser Datuk Haron Din today told Pas members to brace themselves with the possibility of the party being expelled from Pakatan coalition.

He said such a scenario should not be dismissed despite repeated calls by delegates at the Pas 60th muktamar (annual general meeting) here for the party to remain in the coalition.

“Even in a marriage, if certain conditions had been breeched, it would not be able to be saved and divorce is the only way out,” he said.

Relations between Pas and its Pakatan allies PKR and DAP reached a breaking point over the Selangor leadership crisis when it was widely rumoured of late that Sultan of Selangor may appoint a Pas assemblyman as menteri besar on Sept 23.

Haron reminded members that Pas’ stand on such matters are based on Islamic teachings unlike that of PKR’d and DAP’s.

“We must therefore abide by the Syura Council’s decision and support the stand made by our party,” he said.
