Asainar @ Hasnar M.P Ebrahim claimed that after a statement by the chairman in the local media on May 1, 2013, that there were 60,673 dubious entries in Sabah's electoral roll, he had obtained information about 250 dubious voters in the electoral rolls.
He prayed for an order of certiorari and an order of mandamus to quash or remove all the 250 dubious entries or any part that are found in the electoral rolls of the State and Parliamentary constituencies of Sabah.
He is also seeking an order of prohibition against the respondent to disallow or prevent the 250 dubious entries that are found in the electoral rolls of the State and Parliamentary constituencies of the Sabah from casting their votes in the State Elections or General Elections of Sabah.
He is also seeking a declaration that the registration of the 250 dubious entries is null and void, costs and any other relief deemed fit by the court.
He filed the application through lawyer Marcel Jude.
Marcel said the hearing of the application has been set by the High Court on Sept 4.
