Allegations that indelible ink can be easily removed by washing may be due to failure by the Election Commission (EC) staff to follow procedures.
EC secretary Kamaruddin Mohamed Baria said today following the allegations, the EC ran some tests yesterday and as a result, fingers smeared with ink from shaken bottles lasted longer than the others.
Kamaruddin said the EC will continue to use indelible ink on May 5, 2013 in accordance with the requirements of the law currently in force.
The EC received the information via social networking sites with photograph of an early voter showing the indelible could be easily removed by washing.
