PTI lawyer Shoaib Shaheen has claimed that the public and the international media are aware of how “post-poll rigging” took place in Pakistan.

“If we are unable to take back the stolen seats, the public knows, who they voted for and even the national and international media knows how post-poll rigging took place,” he said.

Giving an example of his constituency, Shaheen said independent candidate Mustafa Khokhar, JI’s Kashif Chaudhry, TLP’s Hafiz Khawar and himself had corresponding Form 45s but the results were different.
