Other PPBM leaders who were seen leaving the building at around the same time as Dr Mahathir were Maszlee Malik, Tan Sri Rais Yatim, Datuk Seri Redzuan Yusof, and Datuk Seri Ahmad Faizal Azumu.
Leaders such as PPBM deputy president Datuk Seri Mukhriz Mahathir, party Youth chief Syed Saddiq Abdul Rahman and Datuk Marzuki Yahya were sighted entering the premises for the meeting with Dr Mahathir.
Separately, Opposition party Umno’s supreme council is said to be having its own meeting this afternoon at its party headquarters.
Meanwhile, PPBM deputy president Datuk Seri Mukhriz Mahathir downplayed the issues brought up in the meeting, saying they were "normal things" which were discussed.
“The normal thing (we speak of). Thank you, I have got a wedding to attend,” the Kedah mentri besar told reporters briefly when met here.
He refused to divulge further when pressed before departing in his car.
