The election commission on Wednesday reserved its verdict over election petitions of three NA constituencies of Karachi.
Bench-I of the ECP comprises of Sindh and KPK members heard election petitions regarding NA-235, NA-236 and NA-242 constituencies of Karachi. Member ECP Nisar Durrani during the hearing said that the returning officers of NA-235 and NA-236 have submitted their reports.
Petitioner Saif ur Rehman’s counsel said,” we are only pleading that there is difference between the form-45 and form-47. If the result based on fake form-45 then the election result would have to be declared as void”. “Can we send the matter to election tribunals,” ECP member Nisar Durrani asked. “According to the election act, the election commission could take decision on the petition,” petitioner’s counsel said.
“We have won the election with 30,000 votes lead according to form-45,” petitioner’s counsel said during hearing of the election petition for Karachi’s NA-242. “Apart of Mustafa Kamal all representatives of other parties have genuine similar form-45,” lawyer said. “Mustafa Kamal has only won in form-47, form-48 and form-49,” he added. The election commission bench reserved its decision over three election petitions.
