The Election Tribunal Tuesday ordered verification of thumb impressions by NADRA in Karachi’s provincial assembly constituency PS-128 Malir.
Media reports said the order was issued over reports of alleged rigging in the constituency which comprises Malir, Landhi, Korangi Industrial Area and Noor Manzil areas.
The tribunal ordered authorities to verify thumb impressions with the help of NADRA record. After re-polling at six polling stations of Malir PS-128, MQM’s Waqar Hussain was declared victorious, beating his main contender, Muttahida Deeni Mahaz’s (MDM) Maulana Aurangzeb Farooqui in June 2013.
