MIRI: An unprecedented case, and a very interesting “legal first” in Sarawak — that was how lawyers and veteran politicians have described the poser surrounding SUPP president Tan Sri Peter Chin resulting from the Registrar of Societies’ move to deregister Chin’s Bekenu branch.
Chin’s legitimacy as party president has been called into question following the decision to declare illegal the Bekenu branch, and Piasau branch, after the ROS ruled that there were irregularities committed by the two branches during the 2011 branch elections.
