Gohar told Dawn.com<\/em> that several others were also injured in the incident.<\/p>\n

Gohar added that NDM leaders were in the process of filing a first information report.<\/p>\n

Gohar and another NDM leader Afrasiab Khattak alleged that law-enforcement personnel opened fire on Dawar during the protest.<\/p>\n

The police have not issued any statements yet.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Khattak condemned<\/a> the attack, saying that the ECP had turned a \u201cdeaf ear\u201d to NDM\u2019s appeals for the last three days against the \u201cbrazen attempts\u201d to rig the election results.<\/p>\n

Balochistan National Party-Mengal (BNP-M) President Sardar Akhtar Mengal also condemned the attack, saying: \u201cEverything is being done to change results.\u201d<\/p>\n

Former human rights minister Shireen Mazari said that the attack on Dawar was \u201ctotally condemnable\u201d.<\/p>\n
