Kuala Nerus MP Khairuddin Aman Razali has been removed from his position as a PAS central committee member, according to party president Abdul Hadi Awang.

Hadi confirmed the matter when met by reporters in Marang, Terengganu, before Friday prayers this afternoon.

Khairuddin is among a group of leaders who are opposed to Hadi's strategy of forging stronger ties with Bersatu under the PN banner, which is causing tension with Umno.
