ISLAMABAD: Pakistani authorities said on Thursday full results of a general election would be delayed as cricket-hero-turned-politician Imran Khan led in a partial count that opponents said was rigged.
The party of Khan’s jailed chief rival, ousted Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif, called the count an assault on democracy in the nuclear-armed, Muslim country which has a history of military rule.
