Verdict announced regarding disqualification of dissident members
ECP dismisses reference seeking disqualification of dissident PTI members of National Assembly
The Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) on Wednesday announced the verdict regarding the PTI's references seeking the disqualification of its dissident members of the National Assembly.
In a judgement, the ECP dismissed the reference seeking disqualification of dissident PTI members of National Assembly.
A three-member bench, headed by Chief Election Commissioner (CEC) Sikandar Sultan Raja, reserved its decision earlier after hearing arguments from all sides — the PTI and the lawyers of the dissident MNAs.
During the hearing, the ECP rejected the request to accept any more records from PTI. PTI's lawyer Faisal Chaudhry requested the court to provide a copy of the reserved verdict, saying that he will appeal against it.
