MKT lulus isu Zara, Najib dan ‘lompat parti’

MESYUARAT Majlis Kerja Tertinggi malam tadi meluluskan tiga usul, iaitu:
1. Menghantar nota bantahan kepada semua kepimpinan parti gabungan dalam Kerajaan Perpaduan Malaysia yang bercadang atau telah membenarkan kemasukan ahli UMNO ke dalam parti masing-masing.
Menurut Setiausaha, Datuk Wira Dr Asyraf Wajdi Dusuki berkata, langkah itu adalah protes rasmi dan amaran keras terhadap tindakan yang boleh menjejaskan hubungan antara parti gabungan sekiranya dibiarkan berlarutan.
“Protes ini merupakan amaran keras, jika tidak ditangani boleh mengeruhkan hubungan sesama parti-parti gabungan,” menurut kenyataan tersebut.
2. Menyatakan kekecewaannya dengan kelemahan prosedur siasatan ke atas kes Zara Qairina yang diakui sendiri oleh Polis Diraja Malaysia (PDRM) dan menyokong penuh keputusan Jabatan Peguam Negara (AGC) untuk menjalankan inkues penuh bagi menentukan punca kematian, termasuk kemungkinan unsur jenayah.
“Moga-moga proses inkues ini kelak dikendalikan secara bebas dan telus mengikut undang-undang bagi mendapatkan keadilan tuntas buat arwah Zara Qairina,” tegas kenyataan itu.
3. Mesyuarat MKT turut membincangkan isu lain termasuk keputusan Mahkamah Persekutuan berkaitan semakan kehakiman Datuk Seri Mohd Najib Tun Abdul Razak yang memberikan kelegaan terhadap usaha-usaha untuk mendapatkan keadilan dan pembelaan buat Najib.
Sehubungan itu, berdasarkan kenyataan itu, UMNO turut memandang serius kesalahan berulang dalam isu pemasangan dan pengibaran bendera Jalur Gemilang yang merupakan maruah dan lambang kedaulatan negara.
“Tindakan tegas dan keras termasuk pendakwaan mesti dilakukan ke atas sesiapa sahaja yang melakukan kesalahan ini tanpa mengira apa jua alasan sebagaimana peruntukan undang-undang yang sedia ada,” ujarnya lagi.

Umno discuss Zara, Najib and ‘party hopping’

THE Supreme Council meeting last night discussed three main agendas, namely:
1. It is sending a protest note to all parties in the Unity Government against taking any Umno members to join their ranks.

In a statement, its secretary-general Asyraf Wajdi Dusuki warned that such a move will lead to a rift within the government coalition.

“Umno will deliver a protest note to all leaders of parties in the Unity Government coalition who are planning, or have already allowed, Umno members to join their parties.

“This protest serves as a stern warning that, if not addressed, it could strain relations among coalition partners,” he said in the statement released after the Umno Supreme Council meeting here.

2. Umno has expressed disappointment over the police’s handling of the case involving the death of Zara Qairina Mahathir.

Asyraf described the handling of the case as “extremely weak” and said it failed to follow normal procedures and standard operating procedures (SOPs), as acknowledged by the police, which the party found deeply disappointing.

“Umno is deeply saddened and affected by the tragic death of the late Zara Qairina.

“The handling of this case, which appears to have been extremely weak and failed to comply with normal procedures and SOPs, as acknowledged by the police, is deeply disappointing,” he said at a press conference after the party’s supreme council meeting last night.

3. Umno welcomed the unanimous decision by a three-judge panel of the Federal Court to expedite the judicial review concerning Najib Razak and the much-debated Titah Adendum.

Asyraf said Umno is happy with the development.

“This decision provides relief to efforts to obtain justice for Najib, and we will continue to be committed to using all available channels to obtain a defence for Najib,” he told reporters after the meeting.

Former prime minister Najib, 71, has been serving his sentence at Kajang Prison since Aug 23, 2022, after being convicted of misappropriating RM42mil from SRC International Sdn Bhd.
