KUALA LUMPUR: Datuk Dr Mohd Radzi Md Jidin of Parti Pribumi Bersatu Malaysia (Bersatu) has retained his position as Putrajaya MP after an election court rejected a petition that was filed against him.
This was after High Court Judge Faizah Jamaludin allowed a preliminary objection made by Radzi to strike out the petition filed by Putrajaya Umno vice-chief Datuk Ahmad Faisal Abdul Karim.
"The deficiency in facts and particulars on alleged bribery to voters will make it impossible to prove his case beyond reasonable doubt if trial was held. She further said that as an election judge, she was constrained by the powers expressly vested in her under the Election Offences Act. In the petition filed on Jan 26, Ahmad Faisal was seeking a court order to declare that Radzi should not have been declared the winner of the Putrajaya seat in the 15th General Election on Nov 19 last year as his alleged bribes of RM150 each induced voters to vote for him and not other candidates.
