Pekan seat need not be vacated yet despite Court of Appeal decision, says FT Pejuang deputy chief

PETALING JAYA: The Pekan parliamentary seat need not be vacated, even though its MP Datuk Seri Najib Razak's conviction in the SRC International Sdn Bhd corruption case was upheld on Wednesday (Dec 8), says Muhammad Rafique Rashid Ali (pic).

The Federal Territories Parti Pejuang Tanah Air deputy chief said the seat will only become automatically vacant if the Federal Court, as the final avenue of appeal, decides to uphold the High Court’s conviction.
