PUTRAJAYA, April 17 — Parti Keadilan Rakyat members may file official complaints with the Party Election Committee (JPP) if they have information regarding misconduct or corruption during the party’s elections, said JPP chairman Datuk Seri Dr Zaliha Mustafa.
She said that the JPP would review all complaints and take action if necessary.
“I believe such issues (misconduct and corruption) should not happen because the purpose of the election, whether this one or any in the future, is to select leaders.
“And those leaders must be individuals with good governance and integrity, ultimately leading the country in the best possible way,” Dr Zaliha told the press after opening the 2025 Governance, Integrity and Anti-Corruption Strengthening Module (MPGIA) Seminar by the Federal Territories Department today.
When asked whether the JPP had received any complaints, she said that she had left the matter to the complaints committee, led by JPP deputy chairman and Objections or Complaints Bureau's head Datuk Ahmad Kassim to manage and review all received reports.
Dr Zaliha also denied allegations of 'invisible hands' influencing the results of Keadilan's divisional elections in seven states recently.
She said any dissatisfied party members could lodge their complaints via the JPP’s official website.
“We are in direct contact with the party’s voting system developers, and we have auditors overseeing the entire election process from beginning to end.
“Based on what I have seen throughout the election process, I have not noticed any ‘invisible hands’ at play because we have been closely monitoring these matters,” she said.
Previously, Shah Alam division chief Rodziah Ismail, who lost to her challenger, Kota Anggerik state assemblyman Najwan Halimi, raised doubts over the election results, describing them as “strange”.
In a Facebook post, she expressed suspicion, pointing out that she was the only candidate from her team who lost.
