Was Rafizi Ramli attacked in Keningau, Sabah? PKR SABAH TO HOLD RE-VOTING IN KENINGAU, PENSIANGAN & TAWAU…

7 November 2018

THREE PKR branches in Sabah are set to conduct a revote for the party polls after being beset with problems during polling last weekend, its central election committee (JPP) head, Rashid Din, said.

He said the branches affected were Tawau, Keningau and Pensiangan.

“A revote is likely as the three branches had a lot of problems,” Rashid told The Malaysian Insight today. 

Results published by the JPP on Monday after the two-day voting process for Sabah showed incumbent deputy president Azmin Ali had won in Tawau and Keningau, while his rival Rafizi Ramli had won in Pensiangan.

“Two branches will start the voting process early and in Pensiangan it will be an extension of the polling period. Our officers were slow in running the balloting process in Pensiangan the other day.”

The Malaysian Insight has tallied the votes based on data from the JPP which show that Azmin now has 60,333 votes while Rafizi has 57,327 votes.

This excludes votes under dispute in some states that have yet to be resolved.

The last state to vote is Sarawak, which will do so on Saturday.

THE uproar at a polling centre in Keningau, Sabah, during the PKR elections there began when deputy president candidate Rafizi Ramli arrived at the hall, the party’s deputy central election committee (JPP) chairman Adzman Hedra said.

“Everything was under control until the arrival of Rafizi. After he arrived, (people) looked rather agitated. 

“Then, he went inside the hall and demanded that the monitors put the voting on hold,” Adzman told The Malaysian Insight when asked about a video clip that had gone viral showing Rafizi cornered by a noisy crowd inside the Keningau polling centre.

Rafizi later reportedly said that a man had approached him from the crowd and attempted to assault him, but only managed to graze his head.

Adzman, who is in Keningau, said the incident involving Rafizi occurred about 4.15pm.

He said when Rafizi demanded a stop to the voting process, the election monitors tried to call the JPP but could not due to poor mobile phone coverage in the area.

Rafizi then began talking loudly in the hall.

“This was when the crowd got agitated. Luckily, police immediately moved in.”

Adzman said the voting process was not called off and continued till the end, after which the election monitors packed up and left.

Rafizi, however, later reportedly said the attempted assault took place as he was leaving the centre.

He said that voting in Keningau had been called off about an hour before closing time and this had caused an uproar among party members who had been waiting outside since morning.

Meanwhile, Keningau police said no arrests have been made following the incident.

Keningau acting police chief Asst Supt Lee Nyuk Kim said they were investigating the case.
.
Incumbent Keningau division chief Johari Tahir, who was at the scene, claimed that the scuffle broke out after Rafizi had entered the polling centre and “provoked” the JPP officer on duty.

Johari also claimed it was Rafizi’s supporters who had sparked the scuffle.

“Rafizi’s supporters were being violent, hitting the wall, throwing chairs and breaking the door at the entrance of the voting hall,” he said when contacted, adding that he had not personally witnessed the attack on Rafizi.

Rafizi explained that he had gotten involved because the entrance to the hall had allegedly been blocked to only allow certain voters to enter. – MKINI
