ISLAMABAD (Dunya News): A petition has been filed in the Election Commission seeking the disqualification of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Chief Minister Sohail Afridi, Dunya News reported on Tuesday.
The petition was submitted by Advocate Sibghatullah Shah, who stated that Chief Minister Sohail Afridi supported the candidates of the Insaf Lawyers Forum (ILF) in the bar elections.
According to the petition, the Chief Minister’s support for ILF candidates reflects malicious intent, and Sohail Afridi has openly violated Articles 2-A, 4, 5, 6, 9, and 25 of the Constitution.
