JUI-F workers have blocked a portion of Hub River Road in Karachi in protest against alleged rigging in the February 8 general elections.

During an address to the protesters, JUI-F leader Sami Swati said the party was holding “peaceful protest”, affirming that no property damage has been caused by their workers.

Swati further accused the Election Commission in Sindh of operating as a “B Team” of the PPP.
