Jamaat-i-Islami (JI) through its deputy secretary Dr Fareed Ahmad Pracha has approached the Lahore High Court against political office of President Asif Ali Zardari and sought a declaration that the President suffered from pre-election disqualification.
The petitioner stated that the respondent President from the day one has been persistently carrying on political activities as head of state as well as head of political party. The petitioner, therefore, prayed to the court to declare that the respondent as head of a political party was not qualified at the time of his nomination for election of the President.
