Crying foul, Anwar disputes GE13 results

Opposition Leader Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim said he will not accept the Election 2013 result, accusing the Elections Commission (EC) of rigging the polls to give Barisan Nasional (BN) victory.
As results streamed in, the PKR de facto leader said Pakatan Rakyat will not recognise the legitimacy of the outcome, claiming that several hotly-contested seats were marred by allegations of widespread fraud.
“As of now we are not accepting the results,” the visibly upset Anwar told a press conference packed with supporters, local and international pressmen.
