NA-15 Mansehra: Nawaz Sharif's petition in election case rejected

Islamabad: The Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) Wednesday rejected the petition of Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) chief Nawaz Sharif in the election case of NA-15 Mansehra.

The Election Commission had reserved its decision yesterday on the appeal of former Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif regarding the re-election on NA-15 Mansehra, which has been announced on Wednesday.

The ECP rejected the petition of (N) League leader Nawaz Sharif in the election excuse case and directed him to approach the Election Tribunal.

It has been ordered by the ECP to the Returning Officer to compile the final result of the constituency within three days.

It is pertinent to note that Nawaz Sharif was defeated by an independent candidate supported by Pakistan Tehreke-e-Insaf (PTI) from NA-15 Mansehra in the general elections.

PTI-backed independent candidate Gustasub Khan got 105,249 votes and Nawaz Sharif got 80,382 votes.
