HARIPUR:
The Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) ordered recounting of votes on the NA-19 Haripur constituency on May 22, radio.gov.pk reported Friday.

The application for recounting of votes was submitted by Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) candidate Omar Ayub, who lost the seat to Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) candidate Raja Aamer Zaman.
