Sacked exco ready to take legal action against MB

SHAH ALAM: The six sacked PKR and DAP exco members are ready to take legal action against now-independent menteri besar Tan Sri Abdul Khalid Ibrahim if their political efforts to resolve this issue amicably fails.

Sacked DAP exco Datuk Teng Chang Khim in a press conference at Bangunan Sultan Salahuddin Abdul Aziz Shah here today insisted that they were still legitimate excos and will still perform their duties.

“We are not yet sacked, because the sacking was not legal.

“In a legal perspective, Khalid should seek an audience with the Sultan and receive consent from him before we can be sacked.

“We will try to resolve this politically, but if we have to, then we will go to court,” Teng said.

Teng also added that the government has been hijacked by Khalid and appealed for him to resign honourably while acknowledging Khalid for what he had done for the state.

“Khalid has hijacked the (Pakatan) government. We appeal to him resign honourably and we appreciate what he has done for Selangor.”

Teng also said that the PKR and DAP leadership must inform the Sultan that Khalid no longer commands the majority and stressed that sacking was not legal.
