Pakatan files police report against BN’s Rim candidate over alleged use of govt assets in Melaka campaign, evidence to go to EC

Pakatan Harapan (PH) has filed a police report against Barisan Nasional (BN) candidate Datuk Khaidirah Abu Zahar in relation to allegations that she utilized government resources and facilities during her campaign in the 16th Melaka state election. The report was filed by PKR Central Leadership Council member Siti Aishah Shaik Ismail at the Jasin district police headquarters (IPD).

Evidence, including photographic and recorded proof, has been submitted to the police showing that Khaidirah used the Rim Japerun Complex for her event, which should not be used for politically-oriented activities once the State Legislative Assembly is dissolved. The food parcels she distributed were also found to bear the label "MPJ" (Jasin Municipal Council), indicating that they were government-funded contributions.

Aishah urged for a thorough investigation into the matter and an explanation to the public. In the upcoming Melaka state election, PH will contest the Rim seat with Esma Eazreen Husin against Khaidirah.
