Yuktes recalls that Ambiga had even threatened to hold a mammoth rally against the Election Commission on the 40,000 Bangladeshi issue.
GEORGE TOWN: Outgoing Bersih co-chairman S Ambiga’s denial that the election watchdog had ever mentioned 40,000 Bangladeshis voted in the last general election was expected , said ex-aide of the Opposition leader .
Former Anwar aide Yuktes Vijay said Malaysians were neither surprised nor amused by Ambiga’s statement that was clearly outlined to back Anwar.
Anwar had already denied that he had ever stated 40,000 Bangladeshis voted in the May 5 polls, a denial that had drawn widespread criticism in the social media.
He reminded Ambiga that Malaysians were expecting her to issue such a statement and she wrongly believed that Malaysians would be swayed and influenced by her statement to substantiate Anwar’s denial.
Yuktes lodged a police report on Wednesday night against Anwar’s U-turn on the “40k Bangla” issue.
He recalled that Ambiga had even threatened to hold a mammoth rally against the Election Commission on the 40,000 Bangladeshi issue.
He said Ambiga also echoed Anwar’s allegations of blackouts on polling day.
“The blackout incidents never happened,” he added.
He said Bersih should have remained non-partisan and impartial but had been made a proxy of Anwar.
