More controversies surrounding Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak's new year letter have surfaced, after the opposition received another such complaint of a dispatch from an unknown person to an address already deluged by them.
DAP Subang Jaya state assemblyperson Hannah Yeoh (left in photobelow) who is also looking after the Bukit Gasing constituency, said the latest complaint was from a house in that area.
"The house owner had received twenty-eight letters from the BN, but he doesn't know any of these people," she told a press conference with Kampung Tunku State assemblyperson Lau Weng San and Kasthuri Patto, political secretary to DAP veteran Lim Kit Siang.
To make thing worse, Yeoh said a search on the electoral roll shows that there are thirty-seven names of unknown persons registered at the same address.
"We want to ask Najib and (Selangor BN coordinator) Mohd Zin Mohamed whether these are their phantom voters?" asked the first-term assemblyperson.
By revealing such 'phantom voters' itself, Yeoh said BN is like scoring its an own goal.
"I wouldn't say they are not smart, but maybe there are too many phantom voters until they also don't know."
On Wednesday, PKR's Rawang state assemblyperson Gan Pei Nei hadrevealed that a resident in Rawang received a letter addressed to an unknown Indian woman.

According to Yeoh, the DAP has also received similar complaints from the Subang Jaya and Kinrara state constituencies.
"The other two complainants received one to three letters addressed to unknown persons, not as many as the Bukit Gasing case," she said.
She urged people to alert the Pakatan should anyone received similar letters.
She also called on the Election Commissions to clean up the electoral roll ahead of the national polls.
Old IC number for voter
In another related development, the DAP revealed that a man born in 1988 is holding an old identity card number, which was used to register another voter.
ording to Kasthuri (left), the man by the name of Jenson had gone to Petalling Jaya Utara MP Tony Pua's office to register as a voter.
However, DAP workers there were shocked to discover that his Mykd carrried his old IC number.
"He was born in 1988 and shouldn't display the old IC number. So we sent his registration form to the EC as a 'test'."
"And after that, a search o the EC website showed that the old IC number belongs to another voter," she said.
PKR de facto leader Anwar Ibrahim had previously claimed that a Selangor government survey of new voters in the fourth quarter of 2011, had determined that around 134,000 of them were untraceable.
