The UK urges the Independent Election Commission (IEC) and the Independent Electoral Complaint Commission (IECC) to fulfill their responsibilities impartially, efficiently and transparently, the UK embassy in Afghanistan said in a tweet posted today, September 29.
“All candidates and their supporters should refrain from premature claims of victory or unsubstantiated allegations of fraud,” the embassy noted on a following tweet.
Initial reports suggest that the turnout in the fourth presidential polls was very low while around nine millions Afghans had previously registered to vote in the polls.
