KOTA KINABALU: The name of a businessman who held a red identity card was removed from the electoral roll for the 2008 general election, the Royal Commission of Inquiry (RCI) on Sabah’s illegal immigrants heard.

Omar Mohd Subair said he voted in the 1994 state polls and the 1999 and 2004 general elections, but could not do so in 2008 after the Election Commission had acted.
