SG BULOH – Datuk Seri Hishammuddin Tun Hussein wants Pakatan Harapan (PH) chairman Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim to provide authorities with proof that military personnel in Bera, Pahang was given money to cast their vote earlier than the supposed date. 

This follows Anwar’s statement yesterday that he had proof backing his claims and his intention of handing it over to the Election Commission (EC).

“He (Anwar) said he has proof and it should be submitted to the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) for investigation,” he told reporters after attending an event here today.

Hishammuddin also explained that the postal voting process was commonplace for Malaysian Armed Forces personnel who are on duty and are unable to be present on polling day.

“His intention of making these claims are still unknown to this day,” he said, adding that Anwar’s statement had caused an uproar among military personnel.

Early voting will occur on November 15 while polling day is set on November 19. – Bernama, November 13, 2022
