ISLAMABAD: Not convinced with the measures being employed by the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) to guard against the perception of corrupt practices in the coming Senate elections, the Supreme Court asked Chief Election Commissioner (CEC) Sikander Sultan Raja to come up with a workable scheme when he will appear before the court again on Wednesday.
The CEC, however, told a five-judge SC bench, headed by Chief Justice Gulzar Ahmed, that the commission had already considered the matter in depth and come to the conclusion that any attempt to make the ballot paper identifiable, maybe through printing of a serial number at the back of each vote, was not permissible until a suitable amendment to the laws was made.
