The result of Afghanistan's presidential elections audit will not be announced soon, said officials after an auditing of all eight million votes cast was completed.

Presidential candidate Abdullah Abdullah had withdrawn observers from the election audit last month.

Abdullah's rival candidate Ashraf Ghani had pulled out his team after a request from the United Nations, reported the BBC.

Both candidates affirmed that they had won June's poll amidst alleged charges of fraudulent activities.

Both candidates had settled to form a government but have failed to reach an agreement.

According to reports, September 10th is the tentative date for the announcement of results.
