PETALING JAYA: Pakatan Harapan (PH) has decided not to proceed with election petitions to annul the results of the Taman Medan, Sungai Kandis, and Dengkil seats won by Perikatan Nasional (PN) in the Selangor state elections.
Selangor PH chief Amirudin Shari said, however, he would go over the matter with PKR’s lawyers.
He said only one election petition had been filed, for the Gombak Setia state seat, by Barisan Nasional.
“The petition for Gombak Setia has been submitted, while the other three are under review.
“However, I have been informed that the PKR lawyers believe these cases should not be pursued, so we will leave it to the party’s election division,” he told a press conference at the Sultan Salahuddin Abdul Aziz Shah building, reported Berita Harian.
Prior to this, both PH and BN were considering filing election petitions to annul the results of the Taman Medan, Sungai Kandis, Gombak Setia and Dengkil state seats, where the victory margins were low.
The results for the four seats saw candidates from either PH or BN lose by 407 votes in Dengkil, Sungai Kandis (167), Gombak Setia (58) and Taman Medan (30).
Six states – Kedah, Penang, Selangor, Negeri Sembilan, Terengganu and Kelantan – went to the polls on Aug 12. - FMT
