Johor Amanah deputy chairman Zulkefly Ahmad said the existence of the affected Facebook accounts was merely to “undermine” PH candidate Karmaine Sardini, 66.
Speaking to reporters at the PH campaign in Kampung Belokok near here tonight, he said he would continue to monitor the situation to ensure a healthy campaign by all candidates in the by-election.
