The Special Election Court here today dismissed a preliminary objection by Jasin MP Ahmad Hamzah to strike out an election petition filed by Pakatan Harapan candidate for the Jasin parliamentary seat in the 14th General Election, Khairuddin Abu Hassan.
Lawyer Muniandy Vestanathan, representing Khairuddin, said the court had made the decision after finding that even though that it had passed the six-month period, the Election Court had the jurisdiction to try the case. In October last year, the Election Court dismissed Khairuddin's petition after allowing a preliminary objection raised by Ahmad, the BN candidate for the seat.
Khairuddin, the former Batu Kawan Umno vice-chief, filed the election petition in June last year under Section 34 of the Election Offences Act 1954.
