SC seeks ECP, Nadra’s comments on dubious voters



ISLAMABAD: The Supreme Court on Tuesday sought categorical comments within 10 days from the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) and the National Database and Registration Authority (Nadra) on 37.8 million dubious voters registered during 2007.

A two-member bench, comprising Chief Justice Iftikhar Muhammad Chaudhry and Justice Ghulam Rabbani, issued the directive on a plea filed by one Muabashir Lucman through his counsel Ali Raza.

The counsel prayed that such fake voters’ lists should be immediately removed, as there should not be any conflict between the details of voters’ lists compiled by the Nadra and the ECP.

In its first phase of preparations for the new electoral rolls, the ECP had found that over 37 million voters registered in 2007 were dubious as they were either duplicated, multipliplicated or bogus entries.
