ISLAMABAD: The three members Judicial Commission constituted to probe the rigging charges of PTI in the 2013 general elections taking into account all the evidence on record
concluded that notwithstanding the shortcomings of the ECP as mentioned earlier in this report, the 2013 general elections were in large part organized and conducted fairly and in accordance with the law.
The report of over 274 pages was sent to the Ministry of Law late Wednesday by the judicial commission said the plan or design to manipulate or influence the election has not been disclosed with any degree of specification by any of the parties to the proceedings nor is it discernible from the material placed before the commission.
Allegations against those allegedly involved in the plan/design also remained unsubstantiated by the evidence on record.
When the entire context of the elections are considered along with the meaning of overall basis, despite some lapses by the ECP it cannot be said on the evidence before the commission that on an overall basis the elections were not a true and fair reflection of the mandate given by the electorate.
