ISLAMABAD: The Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) will hear the petition against Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) leader Faryal Talpur on 3rd February.
A five-member bench will hear the petition against the PPP leader in which the petitioner had sought disqualification of Faryal Talpur as a member of the Sindh Assembly.
The petition was filed by two Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) MPAs in the ECP in which they stated the PPP leader should be disqualified under Article 62 of the Constitution as she failed to declare details of her assets before the ECP, which means she is no longer ‘Sadiq and Ameen’.
The petitioner added that Talpur owned properties in Larkana and Shahdadkot and she was also nominated in corruption cases through fake bank accounts.
Earlier, the Islamabad High Court (IHC) granted Talpur the bail in the fake bank accounts case in December 2019 and asked to submit surety bonds worth Rs10 million.
