ISLAMABAD, April 22 (APP): The Supreme Court of Pakistan on Monday dismissed an appeal against the decision of Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) for re-polling in four polling stations of PP-9 Balochistan.
Justice Hassan Azhar Rizvi observed that the ECP has given reasons of unnatural voting turn out in said area. He remarked that about 85 to 90 percent voting turn out is recorded in the area where a less number of women come out to cast their votes.
A three member bench headed by Justice Amin ud Din Khan heard the appeal filed by Pakistan Muslim League-N’s candidate Nawab Changaiz Khan.
The top court dismissed the request to stop the re-polling in the said polling stations and ordered the ECP to make the arrangements as per schedule.
During hearing, the ECP’s lawyer pleaded that the election commission has ordered for re-elections keeping in view all the facts. He said that the commission was providing opportunity to the two sides to contest the polls.
