Zuraida is a staunch supporter of deputy president Datuk Seri Mohamed Azmin Ali, and the show-cause letter is seen by Team Azmin supporters as an unwarranted attack against Zuraida.
Zuraida was absent from the meeting, as she had joined the Pakatan Harapan campaign for the Kimanis by-election on Saturday . "We held a peaceful rally in support of Zuraida whom we believe is being unfairly persecuted for being on the wrong side of the camp . "Taking unjust action against leaders and members who dare to speak up will only make a mockery of freedom of speech we have been fighting for," he said.
