The Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) has finally announced the verdict in PTI leader Faisal Vawda’s dual nationality case, declaring him ineligible for holding the seat of a senator.
ECP had reserved the verdict on PPP MNA Qadir Khan Mandokhail’s plea seeking Vawda’s disqualification on December 23, 2021.
In today’s hearing, a three-member bench, headed by Chief Election Commissioner Sikandar Sultan Raja, announced taking the notification for Vawda’s election as a Senator back.
The bench gave the observation that Vawda resigned from the National Assembly seat to cover his crime.
