SC to hear petition on Imran’s disqualification today

Published July 25, 2017

ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) leader Hanif Abbasi has petitioned the Supreme Court to disqualify the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chief, Imran Khan based on a claim that Khan’s money trail is doubtful and misleading.

Abbasi stated in his 15-point reply to the apex court that the documents submitted by Imran Khan with regards to the London flat and cricket contracts are incomplete and unverified.

However, the case will be heard today in the Supreme Court by the three-member bench headed by Chief Justice Mian Saqib Nisar.

Abbasi petitioned last year seeking disqualification of Imran and PTI’s Jehangir Tareen for ‘not declaring their assets to the Election Commission of Pakistan and alleged violations of the lncome Tax Ordinance 1979 and Peoples Act 1974’. The petition also terms the PTI a ‘foreign funded party’.

PTI has also submitted its detailed reply to the court claiming that the party is funded by people with dual citizenship and not by illegal or foreign agents.

It further claimed that PTI received funds from non-Muslims and foreign sources. “These allegations by the petitioner seek to batter the minority community of the country,” it stated.
