PTI notifies Sher Afzal Marwat's suspension

ISLAMABAD: On directives of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) founder, the party suspended the basic party membership of Sher Afzal Marwat for over ‘violation’ of discipline and policies, ARY News reported.

According to the details, Sher Afzar Marwat’s membership was suspended after he failed to satisfy the party leadership against show-cause notices issued to him.

An inquiry committee was formed after the PTI founder had authorised the party leadership to take action against those who violated the policy.

Sher Afzal Marwat has been suspended due to his consistent violation of party discipline and damaging statements against the leadership, a notification issued by PTI Secretary-General Omar Ayub read.

The notification added that Sher Afzal Marwat’s actions caused harm to the party and its leadership, and he has been unable to provide satisfactory explanations for his behavior.

“Sher Afzal Marwat ignored all the instructions of founder PTI, violated party discipline and continued to speak against the party leadership on social media and in public. His statements were wrong and caused damage to the party and he also made baseless allegations against PTI,” it read.
