SHAH ALAM, June 3 — Parti Keadilan Rakyat vice-president Dato’ Seri Amirudin Shari today said he will not vacate the Sungai Tua state seat he won in the 2023 Selangor polls.
Describing the claim as imaginary and baseless, the Selangor Pakatan Harapan chairman said vacating a seat is not an easy feat.
“It’s not that simple, it requires some research,” he said when met at an e-bike handover ceremony for police at the Selangor contingent headquarters here today.
Amirudin, who is also Selangor Menteri Besar, said this in response to the claim that the Sungai Tua seat would be vacated to allow for a by-election to be held, to allow Investment, Trade and Industry Minister Tengku Datuk Seri Zafrul Abdul Aziz to contest.
On Friday, Tengku Zafrul announced his resignation from Umno and his intention to join Keadilan.
