Hadi to undergo medical procedure tomorrow

PETALING JAYA: PAS president Abdul Hadi Awang will be undergoing a medical procedure tomorrow, according to his son Khalil Abdul Hadi.

“On behalf of our family, I humbly request that everyone pray for the health and recovery of my father,” Khalil said in a brief statement today.

Hadi’s health has declined over the past few years, with the seven-term Marang MP undergoing dialysis and admission to hospital several times.

Earlier this month, Sinar Harian reported that he had hinted at stepping down as PAS president due to health reasons.

It is understood that Hadi expressed this intention to senior party leaders at a recent retreat in Terengganu.

This fuelled speculation on the positions of the PAS president and deputy president ahead of the party’s internal elections, expected in September.

PAS Dewan Ulama committee member Mokhtar Senik claimed there were calls for Hadi to relinquish the top post, although this was denied by several state-level leaders.
