Rawalpindi Commissioner Liaquat Ali Chatha has resigned from his office after claiming that the results of the February 8 elections were manipulated.

Speaking to reporters at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium, he said there was “pressure” on him to the extent that he contemplated suicide today but then resolved to present matters before the public.

“It is my request to the entire bureaucracy to not do anything wrong for all these politicians,” he added.
