I was surprised to find out after the election that I had grabbed 140,000 votes,” Nabil Gabol said during his interview in Geo News program “Aaj Shahzaib Khanzada Kay Saath”. <br /> <br />Gabol went on to say that the polling booths on election day were empty, while 'thumb impressions were still being put inside'. <br /> <br />He added that, "I was told to go home and rest as I have already won." <br /> <br />He said rigging was carried out in NA-246 and several other constituencies of Karachi. “Elections in Punjab were also tainted with rigging,” he claimed. <br /> <br />Gabol said MQM leader Anis Qaimkhani had assured him that he would easily get more than 140,000 votes in NA-246 election contest.
