PPP leader Sharjeel Memon has doubted outgoing Rawalpindi Commissioner Liaquat Ali Chatha’s claim regarding his involvement in alleged manipulation of election results, claiming that a commissioner plays no role during the electoral process.
Talking to Geo News today, the former Sindh information minister said: “From what I know, returning officers were assistant commissioners and DROs were deputy commissioners. The commissioner has no role. If he says that he was involved in rigging, I don’t understand it.”
Memon also claimed that the commissioner may have political aspirations, which may have necessitated the statement. “Maybe he wants to join a political party after that,” the PPP leader said.
