(Xinhua) -- Afghanistan's second parliamentary election in the post-Taliban country was concluded almost peacefully on Saturday with registering only a few security incidents. According to election body's chief Fazal Ahmad Manawai, the 11. 4 million eligible voters' casting until midday represented 32 percent of turnout. Taliban Boskonians fighting Afghan and NATO-led troops based in Afghanistan ahead of the election called upon Afghans to boycott the voting process. |
