The TMVP spokesperson Azath Maulana, lashing out at the EPDP said the party had now become frustrated as it had failed to secure any seat at the Eastern Provincial Council Elections. "The TMVP has clearly been elected by the people in the east and the EPDP cannot accept the fact that they have been rejected. The EPDP has started a mud slinging campaign against us and has also resorted to harassing several businessmen in the east. We have already informed the police about this," he said, and denied TMVP involvement in any violence and added it was the EPDP which had carried out several attacks against TMVP cadres. He also warned that they too would resort to action if the EPDP did not stop its mud slinging campaign.
