Penang has denied sidelining PAS in the state as allegedly claimed by state Dewan Ulama delegate Mohd Hanif Harun during the wing's annual muktamar in Gombak yesterday.

State executive councillor on Islamic affairs Abdul Malik Kassim asked Mohd Hanif to explain what he meant by PAS being sidelined when the party had been given more posts than it deserved in Penang.
