Talpur and Giyan Chand had filed review petitions in court against suspension of their assembly membership. Farooq Naik pleaded to the court that the MPAs were not responsible for these incidents adding that they will follow the court’s orders. The Sindh High Court Sukkur bench had suspended membership of the Pakistan People’s Party MPAs, Faryal Talpur and Giyan Chand Essrani on March 16 over dog bite incidents reported in their respective constituencies. The court had directed the Election Commission of Pakistan to issue the suspension notification of the two MPAs. It is to be mentioned here that the Sindh High Court’s Sukkur Bench had earlier warned that if any person will be bitten by a dog, the membership of the respective MPA of the area would be suspended.
