VANCOUVER (NEWS1130) - The Liberal candidate for Vancouver-South believes a school is throwing its support behind the Conservative candidate in the riding, abusing its charitable status and violating election law.

Ujjal Dosanjh says parents and teachers at Khalsa School held a meeting in support of Wai Young, even though the school receives public funding.

He says school founder Ripudaman Singh Malik, who was acquitted in the Air India bombing, used his position to help Young.

"I have also written to George Abbott the Minister of Education, that Ministry gives $8 million dollars a year to these schools run by Mr. Malik and his society," says Dosanjh.

He also wants Elections Canada and the Canada Revenue Agency to launch an investigation into support for his Conservative rival.
