PUTRAJAYA: Any dispute relating to the results of the 15th General Election (GE15) should be brought to court if there is evidence of corruption, says Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Fadillah Yusof.
Fadillah said the court is the most appropriate place to solve the issue should there be any party who is dissatisfied with the GE15 election results.
"If dissatisfied, bring the case to court and prove why the results should be annulled due to corruption,” he told a press conference after attending the Plantation and Commodities Ministry’s New Year mandate ceremony here.
Former prime minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad, in his recent tweet, claimed that GE15 was the most corrupt of all elections held in Malaysia as bribes were given openly to the voters just before they voted.
Fadillah, who is also senior vice-president of Parti Pesaka Bumiputera Bersatu Sarawak (PBB), said anyone can make such a claim without providing solid evidence.
"We have many agencies to handle such issues. Let them do their job. If there is a case, let them file it in court,” he added. - Bernama
