Albania's oppos'n to protest alleged vote fraud

Albania's opposition says it will hold a protest outside the main government building to demand a probe into allegations of vote rigging.

The call for the Friday protest follows a narrow election victory of Prime Minister Sali Berisha's conservatives in the June 28 elections.

The Socialist opposition have boycotted the parliament since the poll and called for a re-count in several areas. The government says the re-count would be illegal.

The conservatives and their allies control 75 of parliament's 140 seats.

International monitors said the June elections failed to fully meet international standards.
