SUPP former President Peter Chin said Sarawak Report had published an article with a picture that allegedly showed him receiving a cheque to be used for the election from Prime Minister Najib Razak, Star Online reported.
“This is clearly an attempt to smear the good image of the SUPP and meddle in the affairs of our party.
“As the past president of the SUPP, I must explain that we have never received any monetary contribution as that is against the law.
“I urge voters not to be swayed by such sinister tactics to cast suspicion on the SUPP.”
The report said Senadin SUPP had claimed last week that it had uncovered attempts by certain rivals to smear its image in Senadin (Miri).
SUPP-BN candidate for Senadin Lee Kim Shin said certain people had been distributing RM200 to each voter and claiming the money was from SUPP.
He believed these people were collecting the voters’ MyKad to vote on their behalf and had alerted the police.
