The company that provided the voting systems for Venezuela's controversial vote for a new constituent assembly has alleged that the turnout numbers have been "tampered with".
Venezuela's electoral authorities reported that more than eight million people voted at the weekend. However the company Smartmatic says the real turnout differed by at least one million. Opposition groups, who had boycotted the vote, had also claimed the turnout figures were inflated.
Smartmatic provided 24 thousand electronic voting machines. The CEO Antonio Mugica told a London news conference their systems provided the correct statistics but different results were announced.
