University of Tasmania’s Asia Institute director James Chin criticised the disbanding move as helping Najib’s election chances. "They are so blatant to issue this on the eve of the elections," he told AFP. "It’s very clear that this is a targeted move."
Would it be wrong to put a comma after "director"?
Thanks.
It would certainly be unnecessary.
No comma, but a period after elections is needed. That is a complete sentence being quoted.

I thought the period after
AFP sufficed. Am I wrong?
Sorry. You are correct. Comma after the quote and period at the end of the sentence.
