Pakistan People’s Party has prepared a reference against Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif and his four close relatives to seek their disqualification and it will be submitted to the Election Commission of Pakistan on Monday, Barrister Latif Khosa said on Saturday.

Talking to reporters, Khosa said that a reference has been prepared against Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif, Punjab Chief Minister Shehbaz Sharif, Finance Minister Ishaq Dar, PM’s son-in-law Captain Safdar MNA and nephew Hamza Shehbaz Sharif.

Latif Khosa said that all five of the abovementioned persons did not meet the criteria of qualification for public office set under Article 62 and 63 of the constitution.

He said the reference prepared by PPP comprises around 1,000 pages having sufficient evidence to declare them disqualified. It includes self-contradictory statements of Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif, Shehbaz Sharif and Ishaq Dar as evidence.

The reference also alleges the ruling party leaders of tax evasion including their tax statements.

The Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) had earlier filed a reference against the PM and his family members at Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) on Thursday.

  1. After milking the Money-mule for long, the ex-govenor now looks to be in a serious business. What happened to the CoD, asks Bilawal Zardari (?) and now the reference. And where stands the 'policy of reconciliation' ? Like took PPP a U turn from the Karachi operations once the guns were turned by the investigators at Bilawal House Karachi. But good for so called democracy.
