Political Movement Unveils Thousands Of Fake ID Cards
|
| If even a brand new democracy like Afghanistan cares about fake votes, how much more should an old democracy like America be concerned. |
[ToloNews] A political movement which is called the Grand National Coalition of Afghanistan by its members displayed thousands of fake national identity cards and voter stickers at an event on Saturday.
Members of coalition said such an attempt will provide the ground for a widespread fraud in the upcoming elections.
Photos of government officials, influential figures and MPs were used in the fake identity cards. The photo of Jabbar Qahraman, an MP and analyst, was used for five ID cards with stickers on them.
"The identity cards include photos of dead people, photos of government officials while all have stickers on them," said Humayun Humayun, member of the coalition’s leadership.
Members of the coalition said some employees of the Independent Election Commission have helped them in collecting the fake identity cards.
"We will use all our resources to have a transparent election otherwise there will be a need for an alternative administration to pave the ground for election reforms," said Ahmad Zia Massoud, member of the coalition’s leadership and former special envoy for President Ashraf Ghani
 ...former chancellor of Kabul University, now president of Afghanistan. Before returning to Afghanistan in 2002 he was a scholar of political science and anthropology. He worked at the World Bank working on international development assistance. As Finance Minister of Afghanistan between July 2002 and December 2004, he led Afghanistan's attempted economic recovery until the Karzais stole all the money. ..
TOLOnews could not get Afghanistan's Central Civil Registration Authority’s comment on the report despite repeated attempts.
The commission said it is security agencies’ task to arrest those who commit fraud by printing fake identity cards.
"This is not our task. This is security and intelligence agencies’ task to find out who has done fraud," said Hafizullah Hashemi, a front man for Independent Election Commission.
"We will not let a fraudulent election to be held because the future of our country will be damaged by it," said Humayun.
According to the election commission, more than nine million people have registered to vote in the upcoming parliamentary and presidential elections in the country.
