The Election Tribunal headed by Justice (R) Wajihuddin has announced its verdict here on Monday. The tribunal expelled Jehangir Khan Tareen and Nadir Khan , banning them to rejoin the political party declaring them ineligible for any post.

The tribunal also issued show-cause notices to Arif Alvi, Saif Ullah Khan Niazi and Qasim Khan.
