Re: Police Probe Vote Rigging Complaints

In arabic cultures it is considered OK to lie when the motive is good. They call it taqiyya
Taqiyya - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Islam Watch - "Understanding Taqiyya ― Islamic Principle of Lying for the Sake of Allah" by Warner MacKenzie
When taqiyya is used to avoid making an admission or concession it is simply an essential means of ensuring that ones honour and standing remain intact and untarnished.

Koran
Al-taqiyya and dissimulation are words used for a practice of Muslims blatantly lying to non-Muslims. All but some of the most fundamental Muslims consider the act of Al-taqiyya or lying to non-Muslims to be a good work.
