Petitioner Akbar S. Babar has stated, ” the election commission’s decision has verified my allegations.” The decision has also confirmed that the PTI had kept its accounts secret.
“I had no personal interest in this case, I have proved right after a struggle after eight years with the power of truth,” he said.
“The ECP has confirmed that the PTI had spoken untruth on massive scale. All certificates submitted by Imran Khan with his signatures were false. He had issued threats to the election commission and the chief election commissioner” petitioner stated.
“The election commission’s decision has built a wall before the fascism, now the constitutional institutions will decide the matter on proof” he said. “The decision that announced today has buried the doctrine of necessity, it is an eye opener for the PTI workers,” he said.
