Claiming that many were afraid of getting involved in irregularities as CCTV cameras were installed in polling centres, he said agents at two centers tried to influence voters and that was why they were detained.

"We found no report of irregularities in other centres. I took action where irregularities were noticed. There were more than 4,000 CCTV cameras. It was not possible to monitor every camera at once," Alamgir said.
