The Umno supreme council unanimously decided today to sack former deputy president Muhyiddin Yassin and former Kedah menteri besar Mukhriz Mahathir from the party.

Vice-president Mohd Shafie Apdal, on the other hand, has been suspended.

At a press conference held after the party’s supreme council meeting in Kuala Lumpur today, Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak said the decision was made after both Muhyiddin and Mukhriz appeared on the same stage with the opposition.
