PKR: Khairy's Rembau Win Suspicious

Rembau’s PKR candidate Badrul Hisham Shaharin is considering a legal challenge on the result for the parliamentary constituency which was won by Umno Youth deputy chief Khairy Jamaluddin.

Speaking at a press conference held at the Chinese Assembly Hall in Kuala Lumpur today, Badrul (photo) said he was far from satisfied with the final outcome of the result for the seat.

He said that the initial count showed that he had won the seat by a razor-thin majority of 141 votes.

A recount however saw Khairy, also the son-in-law of premier Abdullah Ahmad Badawi, winning by a staggering difference of 5,000 votes.
