Khawaja Asif disqualified in ‘fixed match’

Author: News Desk

Maryam Nawaz, daughter of former prime minister Nawaz Sharif, Thursday said that Khawaja Asif was disqualified in a ‘fixed match’.

“Disqualify in a fixed match those you cannot face through the power of the vote. God willing, the people of Pakistan will vote for even the shadow of Khawaja Asif now,” she tweeted shortly after the Islamabad High Court (IHC) disqualified Foreign Minister Khawaja Asif as member of parliament under Article 62(1)(f) of the constitution for not disclosing his employment as well as the monthly salary he was receiving from a UAE-based company.
