ECP Directs Faryal To Submit His Response On Disqualification Petition Against Her

ISLAMABAD: The Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) directed on Tuesday former president Asif Ali Zardari’s sister Faryal Talpur to file her response to a petition seeking her disqualification as member of the Sindh Assembly.

An ECP bench headed by the commission’s member Irshad Qaiser took up the petition.

The bench decided to proceed with the case after it was informed that the Islamabad High Court (IHC) has not granted any stay order against the ECP proceedings on Ms Talpur’s plea that sought to bar the commission from hearing the disqualification case.

Qaiser said that the bench would announce its verdict once arguments are completed as soon as possible. He further said the case should be heard on a daily basis and adjourned the hearing until July 15.
