The lawmaker called on those who are ‘responsible for this transgression to answer these concerns’
MP Ahmed Mahloof
Voters that re-registered at stations set up by the ruling party and at government offices have expressed concern over not receiving slips as proof of their registration, opposition lawmaker Ahmed Mahloof has said.
In a post on Twitter late Tuesday, the lawmaker called on those who are ‘responsible for this transgression to answer these concerns’.
His post translates to, ‘state employees who re-registered at PPM’s stations and government offices have expressed concern over not receiving slips, I call on the leaders responsible for this transgression to answer these concerns’.
The lawmaker’s sentiments come at a time when the Joint Opposition, a coalition of incumbent President Abdulla Yameen’s opponents, has alleged an ongoing effort is afoot to withhold the re-registration forms of those that do not support President Yameen’s bid for re-election.
The Joint Opposition has said that such individuals, mostly state employees, that applied through the ruling party’s mobile stations and government offices will have their forms withheld and they will not reach the Elections Commission.
