Afghan presidential candidate Abdullah Abdullah’s team on Tuesday set a four-day deadline for the election commission to meet their demand for removal of fraudulent votes.
Enayatullah Farehmand, Abdullah’s first vice-president candidate, warned that they would launch“new chapter of deterrence movements” if the commission fails to meet their demand until Saturday.
Abdullah’s team claims that IEC has added tens of thousands of votes to the count, which were cast outside polling hours or which had no biometric records.
The team has boycotted partial recounting process that was launched on November 9, with its supporters blocking the process in seven provinces.
Farehmand said that Abdullah had secured 51.89 percent in the election if only clean voted are counted.
