PTI Senior Vice President Sher Afzal Marwat has alleged that former premier and PPP candidate Yousuf Raza Gilani, who emerged victorious from NA-148, “lost by 6,500 votes” according to the Form-45.

Speaking to the media, Marwat claimed Gilani was “made to win by a margin of 104 votes” according to the provisional results issued by the Election Commission of Pakistan.

PTI-backed independent candidate Barrister Taimur Malik was contesting against the ex-prime minister from Multan.
