De facto Pakatan Harapan leader Anwar Ibrahim has withdrawn his suit against the Election Commission over not being allowed to vote in the 2015 Permatang Pauh by-election.

Anwar’s lawyer, Shahid Adli Kamarudin, informed the Federal Court deputy registrar Wan Fatimah Zaharah Wan Yussof of the withdrawal during case management today...

According to his lawyer, this follows the Harapan leader being granted a pardon by the king.
