Bersama rehatkan Nik Nazmi selama 3 bulan

The Bersama leader, Nik Nazmi Nik Ahmad, has been placed on a three-month suspension from all party activities following his admission to being involved in a closed meeting with a non-mahram woman. PETALING JAYA: Nik Nazmi, the Bersama leader, has been placed on a three-month suspension from all party activities following his admission to being involved in a closed meeting with a non-mahram woman.

The President of Bersama, Syukri Razab, stated that the party believes every issue involving party leadership and members should be handled appropriately to maintain the party's integrity, credibility, and public confidence. As a result, the party decided to suspend Nik Nazmi from all formal party activities from October 20, 2026, to January 19, 2027.

Bersama believes this decision is necessary and reasonable, despite acknowledging the contributions and commitment Nik Nazmi has made to the Bersama cause since the party's relaunch in May 2026. Earlier today, Nik Nazmi confirmed he was detained by Jais for an individual case of two individuals engaging in unlawful sexual relations at a closed location on October 15, 2026.

He stated that the meeting was to discuss a joint project with his colleagues. Nik Nazmi admitted only he and one woman were present at the location when Jais officers arrived, but insisted they were not engaging in any actions that would give rise to suspicion. Earlier, Jais confirmed two individuals were detained for assisting in the investigation of a sodomy case involving a prominent Petaling figure, approximately six months ago.

Jais chief, Shahzihan Ahmad, said the investigation was conducted based on Section 29 of the Syariah Penal Code (Selangor) 1995. "If found guilty, the offender may be fined not exceeding RM3,000 or imprisoned for not more than two years or both," she said.
