The two committee members absent at the meeting were Mohd Shafie who is performing 'umrah' and deputy chief Datuk Nasir Tun Sakaran. Jaujan told a press conference the decision was made because Semporna division disagreed with the Supreme Council decision to suspend Mohd Shafie."The suspension of Mohd Shafie is considered abuse of power by the Supreme Council which made the decision in haste."
