The party accused vote rigging in Karachi and elsewhere after nationwide elections on May 11.

Beacuse of allegations, a revote was held on Sunday for one National Assembly seat and two Provincial Assembly seats in Karachi, Pakistan’s largest city.

Unofficial results pointed that Tehreek-e-Insaf candidate Arif Alvi won the National Assembly seat.
