Parliamentarian Ali Sabry Raheem has been expelled from All Ceylon Makkal Congress Party led by Rishad Bathiudeen MP following the diciplinary inquiry launched by Political Authority of the party.
Chairman of the Party, M.S.S. Ameer Ali said that MP Ali Sabry Raheem had been expelled from the ACMC following a comprehensive inquiry commenced by the Disciplinary Committee of the party.
"The Political Authority further found that the conduct of MP Ali Sabry Raheem, smuggling gold and mobile phones, has brought disrepute to the ACMC, is contrary to the conduct expected of a Member of Parliament representing the ACMC and amounts to a serious breach of Party discipline," he said.
The party also pointed out that as per the Electoral Agreement signed between the ACMC and Muslim National Alliance (MNA) during the last General Elections, MP Raheem contested under the symbol of the MNA. Thus, the notification of expulsion had been sent to MP Raheem as well as to the Secretary General of MNA, Mr. Naeemullah.
The Chairman of ACMC also mentioned that Mr. Naeemullah was handed over the letter of the party and expressed hopes the Secretary General of MNA would take immediate action in this regard as promised by him.
