On August 10, the PTI challenged the ECP’s verdict in the IHC. The FIA has also sent a notice to the former speaker of the National Assembly and PTI leader Asad Qaiser, stating that as per the verdict in Akbar S Babar’s case, Qaiser had two bank accounts and he was associated with their functioning. Therefore, he had been asked to appear before the inquiry team to answer questions about the details of bank accounts.
The FIA notices came after the ECP announced its much-awaited verdict in the funding case of the former ruling party.
A three-member ECP bench headed by Chief Election Commissioner (CEC) Sikandar Sultan Raja had announced the verdict in a case filed by PTI founding member Akbar S Babar which had been pending since November 14, 2014.
Earlier in the day, the IHC disposed of a petition filed by the PTI against the FIA’s notices in the ongoing investigation. As the PTI could not get relief, the FIA is expected to continue its action against the party’s finance wing.
Meanwhile, Asad Qaiser has also challenged the notice in the PTI funding case in the Peshawar High Court (PHC). Qaiser filed the petition through his lawyer Barrister Gohar Ali to avoid appearing before the federal agency and possible arrest in the high-profile case.
