wpa_cli is not passing DISCONNECTED event to the wpa_action script

Hi,
 
I
can see that the wpa_cli which is running in the daemon mode
correctly detecting the CONNECTED event from wpa_supplicant daemon
and pass it to the action script, but I cannot see DISCONNECTED is
passed to the wpa_action script even though the wpa_supplicant
log has reported several DISCONNECTED events. According to the
literature, these two events must be detected by the wpa_cli which is
in daemon mode by default. My concern is why it does not detect
DISCONNECTED event?
