Umno secretary-general Tengku Adnan Tengku Mansor confirmed that the three 'clone voters' discovered by PAS are Umno members, but denied allegations that the ruling party is behind the glitch in the electoral roll.

NONE "It (the clone voter incident) is unknown to us (until you pointed it out). It has nothing to do with us. We do not know anything," said Tengku Adnan when contacted today.

He advised PAS to lodge a complaint to the Election Commission (EC) and ask the election body to investigate the matter.

Tengku Adnan (left) also confirmed the double identities of the three voters after checking the EC database with the MyKad numbers that Malaysiakini’s reporter supplied him.

"Yes, you are right. They (the records) are in front of me now. But we have nothing to do with it," he said.

Johor PAS youth chief Suhaizan Kaiat today exposed another three ' clone voters ' whose double identities are still available on the Election Commission (EC) online verification website.

PAS said the fact that they were Umno members raised suspicion that the ruling party is behind the fraud.

Malaysiakini has verified that the trio have double identity with same name, address and registered constituency but slightly different MyKad numbers.

A check with the National Registration Department (NRD) website, which allows people to check the status of identification documents, found that one of their two MyKads is not valid.
