Kota Kinabalu: Parti KDM president Datuk Peter Anthony is not on Parti Warisan’s list of assemblymen it plans sue for breach of contract by ditching the party after the September 2020 Sabah snap election.
Earlier, it was reported that Warisan was pursuing breach-of-contract cases against 11 of its assemblymen who had defected over the past three years.
However, on Thursday (July 20), Warisan said it was only going after 10 of them.
“Warisan is preparing a lawsuit for breach of contract against the 10... who left the party and will leave it to the wisdom of the court to decide on their case,” party president Datuk Seri Mohd Shafie Apdal said in a statement.

After leaving Warisan, Anthony formed Parti KDM and appointed Juil one of his deputy presidents.
Juil, however, left the party in May to be a direct member of the Gabungan Rakyat Sabah (GRS) ruling coalition led by Chief Minister Datuk Seri Hajiji Noor.
Parti KDM, together with Warisan and Sabah Barisan Nasional/Umno, were part of a failed bid to topple the GRS-led government in January.
