"Pakistan 2024 Election Results: Tense Wait as Imran Khan's Party Leads Amid Controversy"

TL;DR Summary
Pakistanis are awaiting the results of the general and provincial elections, which were marred by an internet blackout and allegations of voting irregularities.

Former Prime Minister Imran Khan, currently in prison, was not on the ballot, with his party accusing the military of excluding him.
