Africa-Press – Zimbabwe. <\/strong><\/span>The Zimbabwe Electoral Commission (ZEC) has refuted reports claiming that election agents and observers are being re-called to sign new V.11 result forms.<\/p>\n

In a statement, ZEC Chief Elections Officer Utoile Silaigwana said:<\/p>\n

The Zimbabwe Electoral Commission (ZEC) notes with concern reports circulating on social media to the effect that election agents and observers are being re-called to sign new V.11 result forms.<\/p>\n

The Commission would like to inform the public that the said reports are false.<\/p>\n

The polling station returns (V.11 forms) form part of election residue and copies are sealed in ballot boxes soon after the counting of ballots is completed at the polling station.<\/p>\n

The said ballot boxes are to be opened by any person until the time specified in the law for their opening and disposal of the contents except by order of the Electoral Court.<\/p>\n

This comes after the Elections Resources Centre (ERC), a civil society organisation (CSO), claimed that its observers were being harassed and ordered to sign new V.11 forms.<\/p>\n

Messages allegedly being sent to election agents and observers to return to their polling stations to correct \u201cerrors\u201d on V.11 forms have also been circulating on social media platforms.<\/p>\n
