ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaaf (PTI) has taken stern action against Sher Afzal Marwat, following his recent remarks regarding Barrister Gauhar.
PTI General Secretary Omar Ayub issued notice to Marwat, asking to submit an unconditional apology letter within 2 days, the notice warned that party will take further action as per its established policy if Marwat fails to provide a satisfactory explanation.
Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leader Sher Afzal Marwat claimed that Barrister Gohar Ali Khan was removed as the chairman of the former ruling party over unsatisfactory performance.
His remarks came a day after Gohar announced that the PTI’s next chairman nominee is Barrister Ali Zafar. The party’s internal elections are scheduled to take place on March 3.
The former ruling party’s top post had been lying vacant for more than a month after not only the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP), but the Supreme Court also declared its intra-party elections unlawful and stripped the party of its iconic bat symbol. Therefore, Gohar, who became the chairman as a result of those elections, was not the party head anymore. But as the party is set to hold its next elections, it has chosen someone else other than him.
