The party most closely linked to Pakistan's outgoing military regime emerged on Saturday as the main player and potential coalition builder in parliament, after an election in which an Islamic front won major gains. Dubbed the "king's party" for its perceived backing of President Pervez Musharraf, the Pakistan Muslim League Quaid-a-Azam had won 77 of the 272 constituency seats by 4 a.m. (2300 GMT on Friday) with six results still unconfirmed. Clouding the political horizon was the Pakistan People's Party (PPP) led by exiled former Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto, which despite alleging vote rigging and political meddling by arch-enemy Musharraf, had secured 62 seats. The Mutahidda Majlis-e-Amal (MMA) coalition won 49 seats, compared with a total of two seats among all religious parties at the last election in 1997.
