The Lahore High Court (LHC) dismissed a petition on Tuesday filed by Member of National Assembly (MNA) Malik Riaz that challenged an interim order of an election tribunal.
The single LHC bench comprising Justice Syed Mansoor Ali Shah dismissed the maintainability of the petition, saying that the court could not hear petitions against interim orders of election tribunals in light of an LHC full bench judgement.
Before the petition was filed, the counsel argued that Riaz was elected an MNA from NA-118 in general election but his rival challenged the election result which had ordered inspection of record in respective constituency.
An earlier application by the petitioner had requested the tribunal to record the statement of returning officer but the tribunal had turned it down. The counsel contended if the returning officer’s statement was unrecorded, then facts about allegations of rigging could not be proven.
He further contended that the tribunal’s decision was against the rules so returning officer should be ordered by court to record his statement before the tribunal.
Who posted this ? Malik riaz is of PMLN not the Bahria town please correct Pakistan Today!
Obviously, the SC will reject it, thats like asking a habitual thief if he is guilty. Imran knew that already, thats why he has set the 30th November date a week ago. If the election results are overturned, the crooks at the top including Judges, politicians and many media owners will end up in jails and all their illegally gained wealth confiscated, we all know that, so of course we cannot expect justice from these criminals
Ayaz Sadiq does not qualify in any case as does Saad Rafique. Both are crooks and were never elected.The Judge in question needs to redeclare his assets since after last elections.
