KUALA LUMPUR, Dec 2 - A by-election will be held in the Kuala Terengganu parliamentary constituency within 60 days from today.
Dewan Rakyat Deputy Speaker Datuk Dr Wan Junaidi Tuanku Jaafar told reporters today at the Parliament lobby that the house has notified the Election Commission (EC) of the seat having fallen vacant following the death of the Member of Parliament, Datuk Razali Ismail.
Razali, who was deputy education minister, died of a heart attack while playing badminton last Friday at the Aminuddin Baki Institute in Genting Highlands.
He had retained the seat in the general election in March this year with a majority of 628 votes, beating Mohamad Sabu of PAS and independent candidate Maimun Yusof. ? Bernama
