SHAH ALAM - Umno supreme council member Datuk Puad Zarkashi is the first to "betray" Umno, claims party's Youth Education and Student Council member Syed Mohd Syed Nasir.

He said the worst split up which took place in Umno was due to Puad’s action to disclose the sacked and suspended name list before official announcement.

“He (Puad) also named Umno Supreme Council member Datuk Dr Fathul Bari Mat Jahya was among those who were suspended from the party.

“He also stated that Malaysiakini wanted to sabotage and ruined Umno’s machinery in April 23, 2018,” he said in a statement.

Syed Mohd further slammed Mohd Puad as "traitor" for labelling Umno a corrupted party as he wasn’t nominated in the 14th General Election (GE14).

“Moreover, he also provided many false information to the former Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak when wearing the hats of JASA Director General,” he claimed.

Previously, Puad had urged the party not to pick anyone who betrayed the party after it lost power in the last general election (GE14) when it comes to choosing candidates for GE15.

The Johor Umno leader was referring to all those who have returned, or could return in the future, after seeing how Umno and Barisan Nasional (BN) had bounced back from the crushing defeat in GE14.
