Calm returns to Ulan Bator under state of emergency

Ulan Bator - Calm has returned to Mongolia's capital Ulan Bator Thursday after post-election rioting alleging fraud left five dead and the imposition of a state of emergency.

Preliminary results released by the election commission indicate that the ruling Mongolian People's Revolutionary Party (MPRP) won 46 of the 76 seats in Sunday's parliamentary elections.

The rival Democratic Party won just 26 seats in the State Great Khural, or parliament. Election observers have reported indications of fraud, including ghosts or absentees who did not live at the registered address.
