Postal vote manipulation has been a common practice
in the military for many years - so it seems - now that more retired
military personnel are speaking up.
Now, four ex-military personnel, namely Major (Rtd) Risman Mastor (below right), Kamarulzaman Ibrahim, Mohamed Nasir Ahmad and Mohd Kamil Omar, have confessed to committing election fraud - the same way an ex-army man said he did so earlier this month.
The
four, who had served at army and air force bases across the country,
said that they were ordered by their commanding officers to mark thousands of postal votes for
the hundreds and thousands of personnel who were out in the field in three separate general
elections between 1978 and 1999.
The expose by the four today is the second after an ex-army man came forward earlier this month, making a similar claim that he was ordered to mark postal votes for other personnel.

Kamarulzaman,
who was a clerk working at the Terendak army camp in Malacca, said he
was ordered to spend three days marking thousands of ballot papers and given three pens of different colours, which he used alternately to
sign the postal votes in the absence of the army personnel who were on
their tour of duty
during the 1986 general election.
