Maryam Nawaz Sharif takes aim at SC judges after elections verdict

ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Muslim League Nawaz (PML-N) Senior Vice President and Chief Organizer Maryam Nawaz took aim at the Supreme Court judges after the Punjab and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa election verdict, ARY News reported on Tuesday.

As per details, Maryam Nawaz tweeted that today’s verdict of Supreme Court against delay in Punjab and KP elections is a part of conspiracy and it is a beginning to rewrite the constitution.

She said that today the Punjab government has been presented to the PTI chairman Imran Khan in a plate. This bench of Supreme Court has now taken the responsibility of doing what the former chief justice Saqib Nisar, Justice Asif Saeed Khosa and former ISI chief Faiz Hameed, did in 2018.

The PML-N senior vice president Maryam Nawaz said that the majority of the supreme court judges have opposed the facilitation done through a ‘one man show’.

She maintained that just rejecting the verdict is not enough, now is the time for parliament to make efforts to stop this facilitation of PTI through legal and constitutional ways.

Earlier today, the Supreme Court (SC) declared the Election Commission of Pakistan’s (ECP) March 22 order on Punjab elections null and void.

The Supreme Court declared the ECP’s order postponing the provincial assembly elections until October 8 as “unconstitutional” and ordered the government to release Rs21 billion funds for elections in Punjab by April 10.
