File photo.The Electoral Commission in KwaZulu-Natal has withheld the results of a by-election in Mthonjaneni municipality ward 5 after claims that outside voters were brought in by the ANC.
Ntuli alleged fraudulent voters were brought in but IFP members were able to nab them at the gate after they failed to verify the area in which they live. ANC provincial spokesperson Mafika Mndebele dismissed the allegation and said the IFP had fabricated the claims to “seek sympathy from people”. “The police are investigating that 15 voters had fraudulently registered using addresses in ward 5 while they do not reside in the ward. A further allegation was that they voted in the by-election,” she said.
