Polling stations closed and vote counting is under way in Pakistan, where Thursday's general and provincial elections were marred by an internet blackout and allegations of voting irregularities.
Polls opened at 8 a.m. local time and stayed open in some places until 7 p.m., after authorities granted a two-hour extension, Al Jazeera reported. Across the country, there were more than 90,000 polling stations, guarded by more than 700,000 police officers and soldiers.
