  "account": "On September 20, the appointments of 10 former Negeri Sembilan executive council members were officially revoked and annulled, according to the gazette. The revocation was a direct consequence of their violation of their oath of allegiance to the Yang Dipertuan Besar, Tuanku Muhriz Muhriz Munawir. These members, save for the menteri besar, hold their positions with the ruler's consent, as per Article 38(5) of the state's constitution. The now-former exco members include Umno's Mustapha Nagoor, Faizal Ramli, Zaiful Bahri Idris, Razi Ali, Asna Amin, Siti Nur Umaira Hasim, and Suhaimizan Bizar, alongside MCA's Siow Kong Choon, PAS's Fairuz Isa, and Razali Abu Samah. Last week, the exco proclaimed Tuanku Muhriz's removal as the ruler, an assertion endorsed by the menteri besar Ismail Lasim. However, this claim was challenged by the state's Dewan Keadilan dan Undang and the Attorney-General's Chambers. Subsequently, the Negeri Sembilan palace announced the immediate revocation of the exco members' appointments.",
  "summary": "The 10 comprise seven from Umno and one each from MCA, PAS and Wawasan.",
