ISLAMABAD:
Supreme Court suspended the election tribunal’s decision on Monday to unseat Saad Rafique (Railways Minister) over irregularities in the 2013 general election, according to local media sources.
After hearing the minister’s petition, the court suspended ET decision for four weeks and barred the election tribunal from holding a by-election in NA-125, according to reports.
The bench also issued notice to Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaaf’s Hamid Khan who came second in NA-125, and later filed a petition against the election result, according to sources.
