Nik Nazmi sends protest letter to PKR election committee over Setiawangsa results


HULU SELANGOR: PKR vice-president Nik Nazmi Nik Ahmad confirmed he had sent a protest letter to the party’s Central Election Committee regarding several issues related to the Setiawangsa division head election results.

"I have sent a protest letter, and we will wait for the response. There is also a Central Leadership Council (CEC) meeting today (Saturday, April 26), so we will just wait for the decision," he said.

Nik Nazmi, who is also the Natural Resources, Environment and Climate Change Minister, said this when met by reporters after officiating the World Tapir Day 2025 celebration at the Wildlife Conservation Centre in Sungai Dusun, Kuala Kubu Baru, here Saturday.

In the April 19 election, the Setiawangsa MP failed to defend the Setiawangsa division head position after losing to famous actor and film director Datuk Afdlin Shauki, by securing 563 votes while Afdlin obtained 631 votes.

On Friday (April 25), Election Committee chairman Datuk Seri Dr Zaliha Mustafa said the status of the protests involving the election of several PKR divisions in the 2025 PKR Election would be announced next week. - Bernama
