KOTA BARU (Bernama): PKR information chief Datuk Seri Shamsul Iskandar Mohd Akin has described the party's decision to sack Santubong PKR Youth chief Haziq Abdullah Abdul Aziz as appropriate and fair. He said the decision was clear when Haziq made a baseless allegation against the party leaders on corruption and an intimate video. This is a strong basis for the party to take action (against him)," said Shamsul Iskandar, who is Deputy Primary Industries Minister. On Wednesday (July 3), PKR president Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim announced the sacking of Haziq, who was Shamsul Iskandar's senior private secretary, with immediate effect for breaching the party's code of ethics. In another development, Shamsul Iskandar said he had received many applications from people of various backgrounds for the post of senior private secretary and will screen each thoroughly before finding a replacement.
