PKR’s central leadership council sacked Haniza along with four others on June 28, agreeing with recommendations from the party’s disciplinary board.

Haniza had her membership suspended on April 6 for holding a meeting with former PKR deputy president Mohamed Azmin Ali and former vice-president Zuraida Kamaruddin at a hotel in Kuala Lumpur in February.
