ISLAMABAD: Former additional secretary of the Election commission of Pakistan Muhammad Afzal Khan has alleged that the general elections in May 2013 were rigged and that the people's mandate was ‘stolen’.
He said that former chief justices Iftikhar Chaudhry and Tassadduq Jillani were also involved in rigging the vote.
Khan made the allegation during an interview on a private television channel, in which he said that Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif did not win the elections in a free and fair manner.
He said during the interview that the Chief Election Commissioner Justice (retd) Fakhruddin G Ebrahim had shut his eyes on the rigging.
The former additional secretary said that the Election Commission had been put under tremendous pressure during the alleged rigging.
Khan said that judges were also involved in fixing the vote and that hearings of voter fraud was deliberately delayed.
Reacting to the interview, Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf Chairman Imran khan commended Afzal Khan and said that the former additional secretary's remarks vindicates the stand that he has been taking.
Imran Khan said that Afzal Khan's statements show that the position for Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif was untenable and again reiterated his demand that the premier resign.
Former Law Minister Rana Sanaullah dismissed Afzal Khan's remarks and said, "people like this are specially prepared for occasions such as this".
Sanaullah said that Imran Khan's protest movement has been a flop and that Afzal Khan like the PTI chief was being used as a pawn.

Why did not Additional Secretary of Election Commission of Pakistan, Mr. Muhammad Afzal Khan object at the time when rigging was taking place? Assuming he did object and his objections were ignored why did not he go public about his "objections" soon after the elections.?
It took very long time for his conscience to bother him and make a statement that people's mandate was stolen.
This matter should go to the Parliament and let the Parliament decide what should be the proper course of action in this regard.

Everyone knew that there had been massive rigging. But what is interesting is the timing of the revelation; a time when negotiations were ongoing and the dharna was losing its substance. In this country no one goes on live television and makes such revelations after 15 months unless they have a protective hand over them. I guess in this case it is pretty clear whose hand it is.

If the allegations are true then elections should be re held and conducted in a true and transparent manner. Preferably under international observation.
Pakistan needs to transform itself in to a modern , progressive and corruption free state. This means from top to bottom.
If there are any question marks remaining on the election results then it should be independently verified.
If Nawaz Sharif or any party is found to have committed fraud then the leaders should be jailed and their party disbanded.

@Asif A. Shah: Perhaps you are missing the point. If the elections were rigged then it means the people sitting in the parliament have no legitimacy. As a basic principle of natural justice, the legislators whose legitimacy is in question can not judge their own case. Now, I think IK is justified in asking PM to step down for 30 days and let the judicial commission investigate impartially. If IK accusations are proved wrong then principally IK should retire from politics otherwise NS must go.

Every day a person comes out and says the elections were rigged, and every day PML-N says they are PTI supporters, how long! everyone knows among PTI and PML-N who is honest and can be believed. Now after testament from within the ECP mid term elections are the best way out and PTI shouldn't back out from their stand. Stand for the rights'

Dost conscious of witness also took many years to wake up ( or was woken up by Zia ) in Bhutto case. This is only few months.
1 or 2 more witnesses and NS is toast.
Now this would be a morale booster for IK and his march.
Now I don't think they will back off on their demand of NS resignation.

Sethi was appointed four times against the will of the higher courts and yet hundreds of high level are not filled . The PML N government in Punjab and PPP government in Sindh are in power since 2008 but they failed to hold Local Bodies elections against the continuous orders of the Supreme Court orders. Do these governments deserve to stay and the answer is no . Zardari and Sharifs have joined hands to stay in power and continue to sacrifice people before World Bank and IMF and they themselves enjoy the helms of power in the name of democracy.

I think the only proof the PTI bashers would consider a proof and would want would be a video where Nawaz Shareef personally stamps the ballot papers. I mean come on, that is not going to happen. The additional secretary ECP in the 2013 elections himself has claimed that the elections were rigged. Why now? Now because at least now there are a few who would listen to him. Five months ago his revelations would not have meant anything. In a country where people have to protest for days to get an FIR registered for Model Town Traedgy, what else would you expect from this man. He spoke up now because Iftikhar Chaudhry is not in control anymore. I think that this whistle blower is honest and that the common man of Pakistan was cheated badly in the elections. Other people like Amin Faheem and Saleem Mandviwala also came out to expose in the same show that the elections were conducted by Iftikhar Chaudry and ECP was just dummy. Imran Khan is right.

Their livelihood depends on these politicians. IK is not trying to make it free he is trying to make it fair. Maybe TAQ is trying to make it free n fair but it is a pipe drea, it will take revolution i.e. land reforms, cleaning up of institutions and system ad true accountability of all privileged people.

It was very courageous of him that he accepted that since he was part of the team, he is also guilty & should be investigated along with all who have been named....let us see the courage of those named to put themselves for accountability.
Is it not criminal to get a years time to decide the cases & yet they have not done, just to keep on filling their pocket from tax payers money ?

This ba-raish person should be ashamed for his allegations without a proof. He must offer evidence for his accusations and if he fails he must be sent behind the bars. The only contribution of silly Imran and his goons is hurling insults, false allegations, and lies on others. That evil trend must be discouraged by prosecuting these evil people.

Lets see how they defend themselves against a bureaucrat's claims.
Additional secretary of grade 21 isnt just a govt employee.

I am not a PMLN fan and I am convinced there was massive rigging which favored Nawaz Sharif and his party but Afzal Khan does not sound very credible to me and this revelation sounds like a conspiracy of some sort.

This guy is attending PTI rally and waiving PTI flag and sitting behind Imran Khan on the container just a few days before his conscious awakened.Being a govt servant it is a serious crime to participate in politics within 2 years of retirement .Suo motto action should be taken against culprits like these .

Still, Supreme Court and no other gov't department is even looking at a possibility of investigating the elections.

This is so annoying that your (moderator/s) have again declined to post my comment which I wrote yesterday. Why are you scared of your masters and can't print a straightforward and clean message which I posted. I have been reading "Dawn" since my school days. I live in UK for a number of years and always keep myself abreast with Pakistan news through your online circulation. I do understand the terms and condition which needs to be followed but this is not the first time that you have omitted my viewpoint which was very much within the parameters of limit which should be adhered.
I am very disappointed.

Where were he till this time? Who covered up his mouth from telling the truth soon after the election or during the 'rigging' time? Looks more like a paid revelation.

Of course, it was stolen through his administrative control over Punjab.

Former Additional Secretary, This says it all. The man's employment was probably terminated and now its his way of getting back or IK is paying him handsomely to make the comments. Otherwise, did he not blow the whistle before?
