Lithuanian president goes to court over voter fraud

None

Lithuania's political standoff intensified Tuesday after the president vowed to turn to the nation's highest court to assess whether last month's parliamentary election should be invalidated due to allegations of widespread voting fraud.

 

President Dalia Grybauskaite triggered the crisis last week after she said that the Labor Party should not be part of the next government given that prosecutors and election officials have accused party leaders of buying votes. (AP)
