GE15 win upheld in court

MELAKA: The Election Court here has affirmed the victory of Datuk Mas Ermieyati Samsudin as Masjid Tanah MP in the 15th General Election (GE15) last year.

Judge Abu Bakar Katar turned down the petition filed by Barisan Nasional candidate Abdul Hakim Abdul Wahid to nullify the victory of the Perikatan Nasional candidate after deciding that the petitioner failed to prove the existence of corrupt elements during the GE15 campaign.
