Barrister Taimur Malik, who contested the Feb 8 polls with the support of the PTI, said that he had contested the elections against ex-premier Yousuf Raza Gillani.
It should be mentioned that Gilani was declared a winner from NA-148 with 67,326 votes, while Malik had secured 67,033 votes.
“They couldn’t even carry out rigging correctly in my constituency,” he said. He said that the first Form 47 showed him with a lead of 200 votes while it was reduced to some 100 votes in the second.
“Gilani sahib, you’ve been had. Don’t abandon your Senate seat. Don’t look toward the National Assembly,” he said. He said that at the polling station near his home, he garnered 767 votes of which 13 were rejected.
He said this was later changed to 767 votes rejected and only 13 votes in favour of him.
