PANDIKAR Amin Mulia said he has done his duty by embargoing the redelineation report, and it is up to the others now to file a police report over its leaking. 

The Dewan Rakyat speaker said those who wanted police action should file the reports themselves.

“What else can I say? I told you so. If it is taken out of the chamber, it will leak anyway.

“There were YBs from the opposition and government who said the Speaker should take action. I took action from the beginning. I ensured that it was not published anywhere,” he said during Commonwealth Day luncheon at Parliament today.

A website, The Other published what it claims to be the Election Commission’s (EC) report the same day Pandikar ordered MPs not to disclose the contents public before it was tabled in Parliament.

The site also posted a link to soft copies for all three volumes of the report.

Putrajaya is to table the report tomorrow. 

Pandikar said it was not necessarily the Speaker who should take action now.

He was commenting on electoral reform pressure group Engage’s move to upload the embargoed redelineation report on its website, in defiance of Pandikar’s directive.

Wong Chin Huat, a member of Engage, said he would upload the 1,000-page report on the Engage website in the next few hours. He said he would pay the RM1,000 fine at Parliament tomorrow for defying the order as he believed it was important for Malaysians to know what the redelineation exercise was all about. – March 27, 2018.
