Pakistan holds elections marked by attacks, imprisoned leaders and accusations of fraud. More than 100 million Pakistanis are called to the polls this Thursday to renew Parliament.
The authorities extended the call for the electoral event for more than a year, hoping that the waters would calm down after the imprisonment of the popular former prime minister. Added to the uncertain political climate are a series of attacks that the country has suffered in recent months by militias and terrorist groups, including the Islamic State, Pakistani Taliban and separatist groups from Balochistan.
