545

LAHORE: The Lahore High Court (LHC) on Thursday declared the elections of the Pakistan Football Federation (PFF) held in Changla Gali, Abbottabad on June 30 as null and void.

The court after the decision also issued contempt notices to PFF President Faisal Saleh Hayat and Colonel Ahmed Yar Khan Lodhi.

The elections in Changla Gali were held despite the court issuing a stay order against the holding of elections and saw Hayat and Lodhi elected president and secretary of the PFF respectively.

The LHC has now fixed the date for next hearing as Sept 18.

The LHC also ordered that Assistant Advocate-General as prosecutor will prosecute the court in this case. The LHC will also appoint an administrator who will conduct the PFF elections within four months.
