PETALING JAYA: Usno president Pandikar Amin Mulia has filed an election petition to challenge the result of the election for the Pintasan seat during the Sabah state election last month, where he lost to independent candidate Fairuz Renddan.
Pandikar named Fairuz, the Election Commission’s returning officer in Pintasan Peter Jiton, as well as the EC as respondents in his petition filed on Dec 22, Sabah’s Daily Express reported.
He wants the court to declare the results of the election void and that he is the rightful winner, claiming corrupt practices and election offences during Fairuz’s campaign.
