ISLAMABAD: The coalition government has decided to request Chief Justice Umar Ata Bandial to constitute a full court to hear the reference it is going to file in the wake of the Election Commission of Pakistan’s (ECP) ruling on PTI’s prohibited funding case as it also considered placing the name of the party’s rulers on the Exit Control List (ECL).
ECP’s three-member bench, in a unanimous ruling, said that the PTI received prohibited funding and decided to issue a show-cause notice to the party asking why its funds should not be confiscated.
In a meeting chaired by PM Shehbaz the ruling coalition partners decided to move the Supreme Court.
Sources said all the allies were unanimously on board for taking strict legal action in light of the ECP’s verdict.
It was decided, according to sources, that CJP Bandial would be requested to constitute a full court to hear the case to be filed by the coalition government.
