PETALING JAYA - The No.2 leader of Parti Keadilan Rakyat's youth wing, Mr Muhammad Hilman Idham, mounted a mutiny and lashed out against top party leaders for breaking tradition, as an internal feud continues to roil the biggest party in the ruling coalition.

This is despite his chief Akmal Nasrullah Mohd Nasir, Johor Baru MP, having announced that Deputy Prime Minister and advisor to PKR central leadership council Datuk Seri Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail would be the one officiating the event. The party has been split by rival factions loyal to Datuk Seri Azmin, who is economics minister, and to PKR president Anwar Ibrahim, with Mr Azmin's camp having boycotted party leadership meetings for months now.In a statement released late night on Nov 20, Mr Hilman said that he agreed with the majority of elected PKR Youth National leaders to defend any attempt to sabotage the premiership of Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad.

Mr Akmal had said that the national leadership had agreed to invite Dr Wan Azizah, wife of Datuk Seri Anwar, instead after Mr Azmin delayed in his response.Sarawak PKR state leadership had cancelled its state convention over the matter and 32 of its leaders flew to Kuala Lumpur on Nov 20 to demand that Mr Anwar step up and put a stop to the chaos in the party.
