Dogar has categorically denied MEPCO’s accusations.

“I haven’t defaulted on payment of even a single unit of electricity that I have consumed,” he said. “I can’t imagine me or any family member of mine being guilty of electricity theft.”

A case of electricity theft has been registered against the MNA at Police Station Muzaffarabad. MEPCO has directed Dogar to pay the detection bill till May 7. APP/AFP
