IECC accepts some candidates violate election law

The Independent Electoral Complaint Commission (IECC) accepts that a number of parliamentary election candidates violate election law during their electoral campaigns.

“We are witnessing that a number of candidates who want to join the house of nation violate the law. They are using public and private areas for their electoral campaigns,” Humaira Haqmal, a member of IECC said.

Meanwhile, IECC receives a number of complaints about the election process but without any documents.

IECC officials warn that any complaint without document will not be addressed.

“We accept those complaints that have documents. We will not address complaints that lack documents,” Haqmal added.

IECC adds 104 dropped names to candidates’ list

The Independent Electoral Complaints Commission (IECC) on Monday re-added 104 people to the parliamentary election candidates’ list from a total of 134 dropped names.

The IECC Spokesman Ali Reza Rohani said that the individuals were previously dropped from the preliminary list due to a number of issues including problems in their presented documents, adding that the objections of remaining possible candidates against the election commission have been rejected.

The election observers, meanwhile, said lack of proper coordination between the electoral commissions causes the decision-making process to be delayed.
