Parti Bansa Dayak Sarawak (PBDS) secretary-general Stanley Ajang lodged a police report yesterday concerning a notice purportedly issued by rival party leader Sng Chee Hua claiming the venue for the youth and women wings joint triennial delegates conference today has been changed from Kuching to Bintulu.

Sng is the running mate of former information chief and presidential aspirant Dr James Masing for the deputy president post.

This weekend's triennial delegates conference on July 26 will not see any elections as candidates aligned to party president Daniel Tajem have all been returned on July 11 when branches which backed the rival faction were disqualified.
