ECP to announce verdict on Toshakhana case against Imran Khan on Friday

Islamabad (Staff Report/Agencies): The Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) will announce verdict in the Toshakhana disqualification reference filed against former prime minister and PTI Chairman Imran Khan on Friday.

The ECP will announce its verdict reserved on September 19.

According to the ECP, the electoral watchdog ordered all the parties concerned or their counsels to appear before the commission at its secretariat in Islamabad.

The coalition government had filed a reference seeking former premier Imran’s disqualification from public office under articles 62 and 63 of the Constitution for “not sharing details” of Toshakhana gifts and proceeds from their alleged sale.

They submitted the reference to the National Assembly speaker who subsequently forwarded it to the Chief Election Commissioner (CEC) Sikander Sultan Raja for further action.
