The Election Commission decided on Tuesday to handover the copies Imran Khan’s nomination papers to Arsalan Iftikhar, the son of former Chief Justice Iftikhar Muhammad Chaudhry.
Sources revealed that a summary to hand over Khan’s documents to Arsalan Iftikhar within two days has been sent to the Chief Election Commissioner by the Election Commission.
Arsalan Iftikhar had approached the Secretary Election Commission Ishtiaq Ahmad Khan and requested the documents of PTI Chairman, Imran khan.
Arsalan Iftikhar had decided on July 7 to file reference against PTI chairman Imran Khan in Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP).
Addressing the media, Arsalan had said that Imran Khan doesn’t fulfill the qualifications specified in Article 62, 63 of the constitution to contest elections, adding that he is neither Saadiq (honest) nor Amin (righteous).
The son of former CJP held a meeting with the secretary of Election Commission in Islamabad today and submitted an application to seek nomination papers and other documents of Imran Khan.
Arsalan alleged that Imran Khan didn’t mention his daughter, allegedly a love child born out of wedlock, in papers.
According to details, Arsalan has completed the consultation process with his lawyers. Documents related to Imran Khan will also be summoned from abroad to take legal action against the PTI chief.
Imran Khan often slammed the allegations as baseless in the past and rejected the allegations again this time. PTI leadership has termed the allegation as an attempt to disrupt PTI’s ‘tsunami march’ planned to be held on August 14.
Khan had been accusing ex-CJP Iftikhar Muhammad Chaudhry of his involvement in the alleged rigging of May 2013 general elections.
