Supreme Court issues detailed verdict of Election Act case
  ISLAMABAD: The Supreme Court of Pakistan has issued detailed verdict in petitions against Election Act 2017 that removed Nawaz Sharif as* head of the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz. Written by Chief Justice of Pakistan Mian Saqib Nisar, the 51-page judgment comes days after Nawaz Sharif* passed the mantle of his party* on his younger brother Shahbaz Sharif, Chief Minister of Punjab. The judgement* also discusses allegations against Sharif* *that stemmed from Panama Papers revelations* about offshore companies of the* then ruling family and that became basis for his disqualification as prime minister. *The Supreme Court on February* declared former prime minister Nawaz Sharif ineligible to continue as president of the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) for being a disqualified person declared by a Court of law and declared null and void all actions taken by the former prime minister in capacity of party leader.* The apex Court also ordered the Election Commission of Pakistan to denotify Nawaz Sharif as president of the PML-N. In a swift compliance of the judgement, the ECP removed the name of Nawaz Sharif as the head of the ruling PML-N from the list of registered political parties.* The Election Commission also directed the PML-N?s acting secretary general Ahsan Iqbal to elect an acting president within seven days and conduct party elections within 45 days to elect president of the party. A three-member bench of the apex court, headed by Chief Justice Mian Saqib Nisar and comprising Justice Umer Ata Bandyal and Justice Ijazul Ahsen, announced the short order. أكثر... ??????? ??????: Supreme Court issues detailed verdict of Election Act case || ??????: ahlam1399 || ??????: اسم منتداك
