The member, in a letter addressed to PKR disciplinary board chairman Tan Yee Kew, said Rodziah’s statement yesterday had “clearly undermined” the credibility and integrity of the party’s election committee.
The complainant, who wished to remain anonymous, said Rodziah’s statement not only violated ethics and protocols but also breached the PKR members’ code of ethics.
Her remarks may also erode members’ confidence in the party’s internal democratic processes, the complainant said.
“Furthermore, it directly casts a negative image of the party in the eyes of the public and external stakeholders,” the letter read.
The member urged the disciplinary board to investigate Rodziah and take appropriate action should a breach of discipline or party rules be found.
The PKR member also called on all party leaders to respect and uphold the internal mechanisms that have been collectively agreed upon.
It is understood that copies of the letter were also sent to party president Anwar Ibrahim, secretary-general Fuziah Salleh and election committee chairman Dr Zaliha Mustafa.
On Tuesday, Rodziah had urged PKR to postpone the remainder of its division elections scheduled for this weekend until alleged “irregularities” in the polling process were resolved.
Polling for divisions in Kelantan, Terengganu, Penang, the federal territories, Pahang, Sabah and Johor will take place from tomorrow until Sunday.
Rodziah, who failed to defend her Shah Alam division chief’s post last weekend, said she found it “odd” she was the only candidate in her team that campaigned together who not only lost but received the lowest number of votes.
She also said she discovered some suspicious incidents in the Selangor PKR division elections last week, including the alleged failure to record votes for the division chief’s post in Shah Alam.
Zaliha today denied allegations of “hidden hands” behind purported irregularities in the party’s divisional elections involving seven states last week.
FMT has reached out to Tan and Rodziah for comment.
