The PTI founder and his deputy Shah Mehmood Qureshi on Wednesday challenged the decision of rejection of nomination papers by the appellate tribunals in the Lahore high Court (LHC).
The PTI founder had appealed against the decision of returning officer who rejected his papers from National Assembly constituency NA-122 which was dismissed by the appellate tribunal.
Justice Tariq Nadeem announced his decision reserved on Tuesday and upheld the verdict of the returning officer.
According to the legal team of the PTI founder, they have requested the LHC to set aside the decision of the tribunal.
Meanwhile, PTI vice chairman and former foreign minister Qureshi on Wednesday challenged rejection of his nomination papers from three constituencies by a tribunal.
A three-member bench headed by Justice Ali Baqar Najafi will hear the plea.
It may be recalled that Qureshi’s papers from Punjab Assembly constituency PP-218, and National Assembly constituencies NA-150 and -151 were rejected.
