ISLAMABAD: Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) on Tuesday rejected Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chief Imran Khan’s plea seeking the adjournment of foreign funding case for an indefinite time period.
A four-member bench headed by Chief Election Commissioner (CEC) Sardar Raza heard the case during which PTI lawyer Shahid Gondal said that Hanif Abbasi’s plea of similar nature is under hearing in Supreme Court (SC) therefore, he appealed to the authorities to adjourn the case till the decision of SC.
Plaintiff Hashim Bhutta’s lawyer said that Hanif Abbasi’s petition is covering different aspects but Imran Khan is no more trustworthy after submitting fake certificates pertaining to party funds in ECP.
Subsequently, the hearing has been adjourned till June 7.
Earlier on April 4, PTI lawyer and former attorney general Anwar Mansur Khan had challenged ECP jurisdiction, saying that ECP could not act as a court under the Constitution.
He said that PTI had submitted information of all its accounts audited by an A-category auditor to ECP after which there was no need to present more details.
