Shoaib Shaheen says PTI to move SC against election rigging

Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf leader Shoaib Shaheen has said the party will move the Supreme Court (SC) with solid evidences of rigging in the general election 2024.

Talking outside the Adiala Jail, he said in a meeting with the PTI founder post-election situation was discussed and it was a consensus that the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) in connivance with the Pakistan Muslim Legaue Nawaz (PML-N) managed to rig the elections.

He said Fafan had also demanded the election commissioner to resign for wide-ranging rigging in the elections.

The PTI leader said contestants were cheated through the Form 47 and the international rating agency, Moody’s also said rigging would not bring stability in Pakistan.

He said the PTI supported the IMF programme conditionally and the political stability was a must to bring economic stability.

“The electricity has increased to Rs70 per unit and the gas prices are also skyrocketing. In such circumstance, the gas and electricity bills will shoot upto Rs100,000,” he said.

He stated the Pakistan Democratic Alliance (PDM) had played havoc with the country and if the reins of the country were not handed over to the legitimate heirs, more destruction would be waiting ahead.

Shaheen hopped Chief Justice Qazi Faez Isa would not be a part of the five members’ bench in cases against the PTI founder to avoid partiality.

“We are ready to recount all the constituencies of KP. Shehbaz Sharif is the enemy of 250 million Pakistanis. Maryam Nawaz is a puppet and has no authority to rule. The reserve seats are our right while the ECP is injustice to the PTI,” Shaheen concluded.

PTI founder says he wants to clear the air about 2014 sit-in

The Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) founder says he is ready to face an inquiry into the 2014 sit-in.

The PTI founder, who interacted with reporters at Adiala Jail a day after the ISPR presser, said he would be happy to appear before an inquiry committee. He said the allegations levelled against him regarding the dharna (sit-in) were wrong.

He said the 2013 election was the one of returning officers (ROs).

“How can one hold dialogue with the government after the caretaker prime minister’s statement about Form 47,” he said while calling the elections of prime minister, president, Punjab chief minister and Senate bogus.

Holding out an olive branch to the powers that be, he said half of his family had men in army and half bureaucrats. “This is our army and we have no issue with it. I came to know about the May 9 violence when I appeared in the Supreme Court,” he said.

He said he condemned the May 9 violence while being in the court of Justice Umar Ata Bandial.

The army, he said, should not be dragged in politics. “We have not resorted to arson in our 27-year history,” he said.

He said the PTI dissolved two governments. It did not want violence, he added.

Significance of media talk

The PTI founder’s media talk holds significance as it comes a day after Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) Director General Maj Gen Ahmad Sharif Chaudhry’s presser.

The ISPR once again said the perpetrators and facilitators of May 9 violence would have to face punishment in line with law and Constitution. The army, he said, had the evidence of wrongdoing.

He said May 9 was not Pakistan armed forces’ case but it was a case of all Pakistanis. An attempt was made to create hatred between the people of the country and armed forces, he said, adding that it’s essential to punish the perpetrators to keep faith in the judicial system intact.
