Sindh High Court (SHC) on Friday ruled that Supreme Court (SC) is the appropriate forum to challenge Nawaz Sharif's powers bestowed on him by Pakistan Muslim League Nawaz (PML-N) under capacity of supreme leader. SHC directed the petitioner to move apex court in this case after SC issued a detailed verdict in the case of president of a political party after he is disqualified for holding a public office under article 62 & 63 of the constitution.
Iqbal Kazmi Advocate filed a petition in SHC to restrain Nawaz Sharif from post of PML-N's supreme leader couple of days back. Petitioner prayed that Nawaz Sharif was ousted from both premiership and PML-N's leadership by Supreme Court in its landmark July-28 verdict in Panamagate. Kazmi stated that Nawaz Sharif -despite country's top court verdict- is incessantly utilising powers.
Petitioner alleged that Nawaz Sharif's actions stood in contravention to both Constitution and law and by using powers under capacity of PML-N supreme leader, Sharif is being guilty of contempt of court. Federal government, attorney general and PML-N were made plaintiffs in the petition.
SHC resumed the hearing on the petition on Friday and directed the petitioner to go to SC for such petition after apex court issued a detailed verdict on disqualification on public office holder to run for a party office.
