The Pandan PKR candidate lodged the report over some Chinese 'voters' living in an Indian voter's house.

KUALA LUMPUR: PKR’s candidate for Pandan, Rafizi Ramli, today lodged a report at the Ampang Jaya district police headquarters over suspected phantom voters in his constituency. With him were Pandan voters Seok Leong Yew and Sivaprakasam a/l S N Karuppiah, who today complained of unknown individuals being registered as voters at their respective homes in Taman Dagang.
“I received these slips of voter information in my post box early this morning. I don’t know who they are so I straight away complained to the polling agents,” said Sivaprakasam.
The three voter slips Sivaprakasam received had the BN logo and contained details of Chinese voters with his home address, despite the fact that he had lived in the house since 1999.
Meanwhile, Seok had received similar slips of four Chinese strangers apparently living under his roof without his knowledge, and immediately lodged a complaint to polling agents earlier this morning.
“Our polling agents were immediately on alert, so when one of the men addressed to Seok’s house went to vote, our agents quickly objected to it,” Rafizi told reporters here before lodging the report.
“This guy — Chen Yew Fai — ran away without voting. We were unable to catch him.”
Rafizi said he strongly suspected the strangers registered to the two voters’ house were phantom voters, and wondered aloud how many houses they were registered to.
“We are highly suspicious that these are phantom voters.
“How can you have multiple people registered under the same address? How were they registered to these houses in the first place?”
