KUALA LUMPUR - Pakatan Harapan (PH) Batu parliamentary candidate P Prabakaran called for Independent candidate Tian Chua to stop misleading voters in the constituency.

"Tian Chua has been going around saying his stance is the same as PH and one vote for him is the same as a vote for PH,this is a misleading statement for our voters here.

"If he had the same stance, he would not have competed on the Independent ticket against PH," he said at a press conference in his office here on Monday.

He said Tian Chua, who is also the former Vice President of the People's Justice Party (PKR), is no longer a member of the party due to his actions in contesting against him who is a candidate for PH.

"In the party's (PKR) constitution, when a party member fights with a candidate (from his own party), he will be automatically fired immediately.

Prabakaran stressed that Tian Chua's actions is a form of manipulation aimed at attracting votes from PH supporters.
