The Islamabad High Court (IHC) on Thursday declared the order of deciding the Pakistan Tehreek-i-(PTI) Insaf’;s foreign funding case within 30 days null and void.
In its decision on the PTI’;s intra-court appeal, the court stated that it did not doubt the Election Commission of Pakistan’;s (ECP) intentions to treat all political parties’; foreign funding cases equally. “We hope that the ECP will resolve the cases of the other parties in a timely manner.”;
“We also expect the election commission to ensure transparency in the investigation,”; the IHC said, adding that “the ECP has not yet issued a ruling in the PTI’;s foreign funding case.”; And the commission’;s spokesman has also assured us that if prohibited funding is proven, it will take action against political parties without discrimination.”;
The PTI filed an intra-court appeal in the Islamabad High Court (IHC) on April 20, 2022, against the court’;s single-bench decision to issue a verdict in the party’;s foreign funding case within 30 days.
