In a stunning turn of events, Rawalpindi Commissioner Liaquat Ali Chatha claimed that the results of the February 8 general elections were `manipulated` under his supervision, Dawn reported, adding that he tendered his resignation immediately after making the revelation.
Addressing reporters outside the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium, Chatha said, "I am taking responsibility for all this wrongdoing." He alleged that the chief election commissioner and a top judge of the Supreme Court were "involved in this", according to Dawn. "We made Independent candidate, who were leading by 70,000-80,000 votes, lose by using fake stamps," he said.
