Islamabad: The Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) on Friday summoned PTI chairman Imran Khan on August 23 in the prohibited funding case through a notice.
According to the Commission's verdict, the party had received foreign funds in the past.
According to the ECP website, the case titled “Notice to Chairman Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf in terms of Rule 6 of Political Parties Rule 2006, in compliance of judgment by the commission dated August 2 in case title Akbar Sher Babar” has been fixed for hearing on August 23, at 10am.
It also issued a notice to Imran in a separate hearing with regard to his disqualification, which will be heard on August 16.
Earlier this week, the electoral body, in a unanimous verdict, ruled that the PTI did indeed receive prohibited funding and issued a notice to the party asking why the funds should not be confiscated.
