GE14 | After some four hours after voting for the general election began, three police reports were lodged over alleged electoral discrepancies.
The reports were lodged over claims of marked ballot papers and a voter who claimed his name had been "used" by an unknown individual.
In Penang, voter Goh Por Cheong said he was informed by an Election Commission officer that he had already cast his ballot, even though he had not done so.
Goh, who was queuing to vote at Sekolah Rendah Jenis Kebangsaan Cina Kong Min Pusat in Air Itam from 8.30am, said he suspected his name has been used by another person.
"I discovered that my name has been struck out off the list by an EC officer, who told me that I have already voted.
"But I have not voted and I was waiting in line. I suspect my name has been used by another person," Goh stated in the police report sighted by Malaysiakini.
Meanwhile, two police reports were lodged in Batu, Kuala Lumpur, by voters Mohmad Shahrul Razali and Mohd Faizal Anuar - who discovered that their ballot papers had a 'dot' in the box for the BN's candidates.
According to their police report, the 'dot' was placed above the letter 'H' in the BN candidate's name Dr Dominic Lau Hoe Chai.
They also claimed a request for new ballot papers from the polling centre chief further revealed that the same 'dot' could be seen on the same spot on all ballot papers.
"Because of that no new ballot papers can be issued and I was told to continue with the voting process.
"I alerted the polling agent and I was instructed to lodge a police report," said Mohd Shahrul. -Mkini
