In an exclusive talk with Dunya News, NA Speaker Ayaz Sadiq professed that the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) informed the Assembly Secretariat about the membership suspension of Shehryar Khan.

He let it be known that when the NA staff stopped him from entering the assembly, Shehryar Khan revealed that he had submitted his returns.
