Guru agama sementara dari Labuan yang dipecat Jabatan Agama Islam Wilayah Persekutuan (JAWI) selepas menghadiri ceramah Pakatan Rakyat, mendakwa menerima borang keahlian Umno selepas ditelefon seorang pemimpin Umno setempat.
Guru tersebut, Qatrun Nada Mohd Latfi juga mendakwa bahawa dalam perbualan telefon tersebut, beliau dinasihatkan bahawa sebagai kakitangan kerajaan beliau hanya boleh bergiat aktif dalam parti Umno.
Beliau mendakwa borang itu dihantar secara serahan tangan pada 11 Oktober, dua hari selepas beliau 'dinasihati' pemimpin Umno berkenaan yang juga seorang senator Dewan Negara.
Beliau bagaimanpun tidak mengisi borang itu dan menerima notis pemecatan pada 24 Oktober dan berkuatkuasa 1 Disember lalu.
Sementara itu, pemimpin Umno yang didakwa oleh Qatrun sebagai pemangku Ketua Umno Labuan, Senator Datuk Yunus Kurus, ketika dihubungi Malaysiakini, mengesahkan beliau yang menghantar borang keahlian tersebut kepada bekas guru berkenaan.
Bagaimanapun, beliau mendakwa, ia dihantar atas permintaan Qatrun sendiri.
Yunus juga mengakui ada menelefon Qatrun selepas mendapat laporan bahawa seorang guru agama sementara JAWI yang berkempen untuk PAS.
Bagaimanapun, katanya, beliau berbuat demikian sebelum JAWI mengambil tindakan memecat Qatrun.
"Saya telefon dia tanya betul ke dia masuk PAS. Dia boleh ketawa-ketawa lagi. Saya cakap itu (masuk mana-mana parti) hak kamu.
"Dia minta borang saya kasilah," katanya.
Penyelaras NGO hak asasi manusia Suaram, Syukri Razab yang menemani Qatrun berkata siri kejadian yang berlaku sebelum Qatrun dipecat mengesahkan pemecatan itu bersifat politik.
Menurutnya, sebab pemecatan itu yang dipercayai berkaitan dengan kehadiran Qatrun ke ceramah pembangkang bercanggah dengan hak asasi manusia untuk berpersatuan.
Mengulas perkara itu, Yunus menyatakan bahawa beliau tidak mempunyai kuasa untuk membuang Qatrun dari tugasnya kerana perjawatan beliau terletak di bawah bidang kuasa JAWI.
"Bukan saya yang buang. Saya tiada kuasa untuk membuang sesiapa," katanya.
Beliau turut menafikan dakwaan Qatrun bahawa beliau menyatakan hanya pekerja kerajaan dengan keahlian Umno sahaja boleh berpolitik.
"Tidak ada semua (kenyataan) itu. Itu temberang sahaja," kata Yunus.
Beliau turut menggesa Qatrun menghubunginya sendiri jika Qatrun berkata benar dengan dakwaan-dakwaannya tentang pemecatan itu.- malaysiakini

UMNO membership offered to sacked Labuan teacher...
A
relief teacher from Labuan who was sacked by the Islamic authorities
after attending a Pakatan Rakyat ceramah has now received a membership
form to join Umno.The religious instructor Qatrun Nada Mohd Latfi claimed that the form was hand-delievered to her school two days ago, after she received “advice” from an Umno leader who is also a senator.
Qatrun further alleged that the senator had told her over the phone that as a civil servant, she could only participate in activities under Umno.
She further alleged she did not fill out the form and received a termination notice of her service on Oct 24, with effect from Dec 1.
‘She requested for membership form’
Meanwhile, the Umno leader in question, Labuan Umno acting chief Yunus Kurus (left), confirmed he had sent the relief teacher the party membership form.He, however, claimed he sent the form upon being requested for it by Qatrun herself.
Yunus also admitted to telephoning Qatrun after receiving a report that a Jawi relief religious teacher was campaigning for PAS but said he did so before the Islamic authority fired her.
“I called her up to ask if it was true that she had joined PAS. She could even laugh (during the call). I told her that it was her right (to join any party).
“She asked for the (Umno membership) form, so I gave it to her,” he said.
Yunus said he had no authority to fire Qatrun as her position fell under the purview of Jawi.
“It wasn’t me that terminated (her). I have no authority to terminate anyone,” he said, further denying Qatrun’s allegation that he had stated only civil servants who were Umno members could get involved in politics.
“That is not true. It is all talk,” Yunus added when contacted.
He urged Qatrun to contact him herself if what she claims about her dismissal were indeed true.Suaram: Sacking political in nature
Meanwhile, human rights NGO Suaram coordinator Syukri Razab, who was accompanying Qatrun, said the series of events preceding her sacking confirms the termination of her service was political in nature.
Syukri claims the sacking, believed to be linked with the teacher’s attendance at an opposition ceramah, contravenes basic human rights to association.
When previously contacted, an official from Jawi headquarters refused comment and asked Malaysiakini to instead contact Labuan Jawi, who also refused comment. - malaysiakini
