The decision to bring miscreants in and force the committee’s hands, the letter revealed, was an afterthought.

“They locked the entrance and compelled the committee to do a letter cancelling the exercise and after that forced us to do a press conference. They initially compelled the committee to sign the photocopies of the results in our possession and issued the same to the people on their own list of 3-man local government electoral panel. They later rescinded and asked us to cancel the election outrightly. Hence handing over the signed photocopies to theirs through the administrative secretary of the party,”
