PAS gags Iszuree

He cannot give press statements regarding his expulsion from MPPP committees.
mppp_penangGEORGE TOWN: Penang PAS has told its treasurer, Iszuree Ibrahim, to stop giving press statements regarding his expulsion from three committees in the Penang Island Municipal Council (MPPP).
The gag order was issued because PAS is anxious to prevent any aggravation of Iszuree’s ongoing row with the state government, according to Parit Buntar MP Mujahid Yusof Rawa, who is Deputy Commissioner of Penang PAS.
Iszuree, one of two PAS members in MPPP, was removed last Friday from the council’s committees for Finance; Planning and Development; and Public Health and Licensing.
The sacking was a decision of the State Executive Council, which accused him of saying that the state government practised pro-developer policies reminiscent of the days of the Barisan Nasional administration.
The offending statement was allegedly made at last month’s PAS muktamar in Batu Pahat in a speech which raised concerns that real estate development posed a threat to the Malay heritage villages of Kampung Tanjung Tokong and Kampung Batu Uban.
The decision on the gag order was made during a meeting of the Penang PAS liaison committee yesterday, Mujahid said in press statement.
“We have decided that Iszuree shall not talk to the media and to let Penang PAS take over discussions of his case with the state government to prevent any other misunderstanding,” he said.
Mujahid said PAS also discussed the issue with Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng during a closed door meeting yesterday.
Last Tuesday, DAP’s MPPP whip Harvindar Singh submitted a petition to the state government containing the signatures of 19 Pakatan Rakyat councillers demanding Iszuree’s expulsion from MPPP.
