Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf

Funds for the party

According to data submitted to the Election Commission by the State Bank of Pakistan, the PTI had as many as 26 bank accounts. Between 2008 and 2013, the party had disclosed funds to the poll panel totalling PKR 1.33 billion. This is in contrast to the State Bank report which mentions the actual amount to be PKR 1.64 billion. Nay more, the party had even failed to disclose details of three banks in the documentation provided to the Election Commission.

Volatile election

The verbal duel led to violence and clashes on election day, with at least two PTI workers killed in a clash with PPP activists at a polling station in Kotli district.
