Jul 26, 2021

Kotli / Muzaffarabad, Pakistan occupied Kashmir, 26 July 2021: - Gunshots..stick fighting.. and trading of bare punches.. Polling booths in the illegally occupied PoK turned into battlegrounds as Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan’s party workers seized control of what was supposed to be a democratic exercise of assembly elections. Most of them succeeded as Police remained a mute spectator. The opposition also alleged that they supported the ruling party in capturing booths and thereby rigging elections in favour of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaaf (PTI).
