“Checkmate!!" PAS' putrajaya dreams In Tatters After Umno ditches pro-Najib rally?!. Feeling jilted, will vengeful PAS use Najib split Umno?.
In the unpredictable world of Malaysian politics another “twist in the tail” seemed to have left many in the country tied up in knots; this was after it was reported that Umno had decided in the eleventh hour to call off its participation in what would have been a mammoth, landmark rally in support of its jailed ex-president Najib Razak in his quest to be granted “house arrest!”
According to its secretary general Asyraf Wajdi Dusuki the party fully respected the King’s prerogative under Article 42(1) and (2) of the Federal Constitution regarding the case of convicted former prime minister; he further stressed that the nationalist party had also decided to heed the call by the Inspector-General of Police Razarudin Husain who had warned the public not to join any such rally, citing the statement from the palace.
