PKR's political bureau today announced that it will uphold the one-year suspension of the three lead members of the ‘Sabah 12' while the remaining nine have been let off with a stern warning.

anwar pc 290607 saifuddin nasution Secretary-general Saifuddin Nasution ( right ) said the trio - Daniel John Jambun, Awang Ahmad Shah and Moses Iking - have committed a serious offence that cannot be tolerated.

The three were not spared the suspension, which is backdated to Jan 4 this year, as they were considered to have actively led efforts among the 12 in their failed bid to form Parti Cinta Sabah (PCS).

Saifuddin had earlier pointed out that checks with the Registrar of Societies showed that Daniel held the post of PCS pro-tem president while Awang Ahmad and Moses were respectively the deputy president and secretary-general.

Their suspension ends on Jan 3 next year.

Guarantee of support

The remaining members of the so-called ‘Sabah 12', believed to be aligned to PKR vice-president Jeffrey Kitingan, have been let off with a stern warning after considering their appeals in which they gave a guarantee of continued support to the party.

Saifuddin said in a statement that the political bureau also reminded the nine to be on their best behaviour as party members.

The members let off with a warning are Nicholas James Guntobon, Paul Kerangkas, Sylvester Mujim, Innocent Makajil, Nasir Sami, Harry Manisit, Rubbin Guribah, Gosibin Yosundang and Guandee Kohoi.
