PAS has denied issuing a statement calling on Kelantan and Terengganu state constituency action councils to urge out-of-state voters and party members working on the west coast to immediately change their voting constituencies.

The statement, which was purportedly issued by PAS secretary-general Takiyuddin Hassan, stated that this was to increase PAS and Perikatan Nasional’s (PN) chances of winning the Selangor, Kuala Lumpur and Negeri Sembilan state elections next year.
