KUALA LUMPUR: Parti Pribumi Bersatu Malaysia (Bersatu) said no more members of parliament (MP) from their party would declare support for the Prime Minister.
Information chief Datuk Razali Idris said he is confident no others will follow in the footsteps of the five MPs who expressed support for Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim.
"I am fully confident that there will be no more treachery against Bersatu as happened to the previous five members of parliament.
"Bukit Gantang member of parliament (Datuk Syed Abu Hussin Hafiz Syed Abdul Fasal) doesn't need to associate with others, he first needs to answer my challenge, if he is 'anak jantan' to resign and vacates his seat and submit to the by-election," he told Berita Harian today.
He was commenting on Syed Abu Hussin's statement who claimed that several more MPs from Perikatan Nasional (PN) would express their support for Anwar soon.
Syed Abu Hussin claimed that seven or eight MPs from several states would support the prime minister, but he refused to reveal the identity of the MPs involved and whether they were from Pas or Bersatu.
Previously, Syed Abu Hussin was the last member of parliament along with four other MPs from Bersatu to declare their support for Anwar's leadership.
The four MPs are Zahari Kechik (Jeli), Mohd Azizi Abu Naim (Gua Musang), Datuk Iskandar Dzulkarnain Abdul Khalid (Kuala Kangsar) and Datuk Dr Suhaili Abdul Rahman (Labuan).
Commenting further, Razali said that currently, the party would only impose disciplinary action on those who declare their support for the unity government.
"So far (we have taken) disciplinary action, that's all," he said when asked if Bersatu would sue the five MPs.
