ISLAMABAD: The Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) has rejected the four petitions of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf in the foreign funding case.
A three-judge bench headed by Chief Election Commissioner Sardar Mohammad Raza also instructed the scrutiny committee to continue its work and instructed PTI representatives to appear before the committee on 14th October. The verdict was reserved last Tuesday.
The PTI had challenged the scrutiny committee an investigation without informing party members and then leaking the details. The third petition said that Akbar S Babar’s petition was based on spiteful purpose and the fourth was on providing details of the accounts provided by State Bank.
The case was filed in November 2014 by a founding member of the party, Babar. He accused the party of corruption and illegal funding.
