CCTV rakam 3 lelaki buang bendera PH di Kota Laksamana

Around 2 in the morning yesterday, hundreds of Pakatan Harapan (PH) banners were reportedly vandalized and discarded in Kampung Lapan, Kota Laksamana, Melaka. Calvert Low Chee Leong, a PH candidate for the Kota Laksamana DUN seat, claimed the incident was likely carried out by three men based on eyewitness accounts and Closed Circuit Television (CCTV) footage.

According to him, CCTV recordings near the scene showed three men in dark clothing approaching the respective banner, removing it, and disposing of it on the ground. There were also witnesses who tried to warn and chase the culprits but the three men managed to flee towards a nearby villa, according to Sinar Harian. A report was filed at Tengkera Police Station, Melaka Tengah, at 8:39 am yesterday.

Low said the PH Kota Laksamana DUN campaign team had erected the banners at around 1 am the previous day. He expressed disappointment over the act as the election campaign should be conducted in a safe and orderly manner. He hoped there would not be any further sabotage incidents like this. Whatever happens, he and his team will not lose heart and will continue to work hard to ensure their victory is secure.
