The Sindh High Court (SHC) on Tuesday expressed annoyance at Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) for not submitting a response over the notice issued in the lifetime disqualification case against Sindh Chief Minister Murad Ali Shah. The SHC judge Justice Muhammad Ali Mazhar was hearing the petition against Sindh CM Murad Ali Shah to declare his lifetime disqualification.
Justice Muhammad Ali Mazar remarked that no one has appeared in the hearing to represent ECP. He ordered ECP and chief minister to submit their replies in the next hearing. During the hearing, additional advocate general Shehryar Mehar submitted the copies of ruling made by the high court and the Supreme Court. He told the court that the top court had given clean chit to Murad Ali Shah over surrendering the dual-nationality case after he grabbed the electoral
victim in 2014’s by-election and 2018’s general election.
