Sheikh Rasheed's candidature challenged

10 Apr, 2013

The candidacy of the Head of Awami Muslim League, Sheikh Rasheed, from NA-55, Rawalpindi, was challenged on Tuesday. A petition filed in an Election Tribunal alleged that Rasheed did not declare Lal Haveli in his assets on nomination papers. It said that the AML Chief violated the ideology of Pakistan.
The complainant further said Rasheed is married, but he failed to declare his marriage in nomination papers. He argued that nomination papers of Rasheed be rejected as he is not Sadiq and Amin under Article 62, 63 of the Constitution.
