LAHORE, Dec 31 (INP): The election tribunal of Lahore has directed for verification of record of another 99 voting bags in National Assembly constituency NA-118.
The election tribunal on Wednesday conducted the hearing of a case pertaining to electoral rigging in NA-118, constituency of Lahore.
Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) candidate, Hamid Zaman had filed a petition in the election tribunal contending that some 99 voting bags were lying at the Accounts Department, which could still not be verified.
