Saneem to announce next step as Chaudhry's deadline passes

Supervisor of Elections Mohammad Saneem is expected to announce his next step later this afternoon after demanding that Fiji Labour Party Leader Mahendra Chaudhry provide evidence in the last hour to prove his allegations that the 2014 elections was rigged.

While speaking in a press conference late yesterday, Saneem said  that if Chaudhry does not have actual evidence then he must apologize to the people of Fiji.

Saneem says that it is irresponsible of Chaudhry to make such comments.

Saneem is seriously concerned about the misleading comments made by Mahendra Chaudhry that the election was rigged.

The Supervisor of Elections says Chaudhry is misleading people by saying that FLP’s Lavinia Padarath voted for herself in the 2014 general elections at the Saint Joseph’s Secondary School polling venue but her 1 vote was not shown in the results.

Saneem says Chaudhry’s claim is totally false as 1 vote is recorded for Lavinia Padarath in the 2014 election at the Saint Joseph’s Secondary School polling station. He says people can also see this on the Fijian Elections Office app.
