PETALING JAYA: Parti Keadilan Rakyat deputy president Rafizi Ramli has denied supporting former party vice president Tian Chua to run as an independent candidate in Batu parliamentary seat, saying he has no chance of winning at all.

Rafizi insists that Pakatan Harapan’s candidate Prabakaran A/L Parameswaran will be the winning candidate in Batu.

“I don’t think he (Chua) will win. It’ going to be Prabakaran!”

In a press conference, he reiterated that he had never supported nor endorsed Tian Chua standing as an independent candidate in Batu, although he said earlier anyone was welcome to contest as Malaysia is a democratic country.
