JUI-F demands re-election in country after rigging allegations

ISLAMABAD (92 News) - The Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam-Fazal (JUI-F) has demanded the re-election in country after the rigging allegations made by Rawalpindi Commissioner Liaquat Ali Chattha.

Reacting to the statement, JUI-F spokesperson Hafiz Hamadullah said that the commissioner's statement endorsed the statement of their leadership. "It is our stance from the day one that these are not elections, but only rigging," he added.

He said that the results had been changed under a plan. "We express sorrow over the thought of some friends from the PPP and the PML-N who defended Gen (retd) Bajwa," he added.

Hafiz Hamadullah said that each person visiting the house of Maulana Fazalur Rehman would be respected. "We might have an ideological difference with someone, but not have a person difference," he maintained.

He said that silence of the PPP and the PML-N over the rigging allegations is meaningful.
