Abdullah Abdullah, one of the two Afghanistan's Presidential candidates has said that he would reject the expected results of the election's second round and that all plans to form a unity government remain stagnant.

According to Fox News, Abdullah claims that he had won in both April and June runoff and accused election authorities of illegally supporting his opponent Ashraf Ghani.

The second round outcomes will be likely announced later this week following the completion of seven day long audit process.

Abdullah said that they had been the winners according to people's votes.

The United States has been pressurizing both candidates to form a national unity government.
