Minhajul Quran International (MQI) chief Tahir-ul-Qadri petition for reconstitution of Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) was dismissed by the three-member bench of Supreme Court of Pakistan. in the short order apex court said that Qadri has failed to convince the court over his petition and the intentions behind filing it.
During the hearing, the bench questioned Qadri loyalty under Queen Elizabeth’s oath. In reply Tahir-ul-Qadri waved a photo of the oath-taking ceremony of the Chief Justice Iftikhar Muhammad Chaudhry from former president Pervez Musharraf and said that if Chief Justice cannot be termed suspicious for his oath under Provisional Constitutional Order (PCO) then his oath under Queen Elizabeth cannot be questioned.
After this apex court barred Tahir-ul-Qadri from continuing the argument and was requested to step down from the rostrum. War of words was exchanged between court and Qadri. CJ remarked that Qadri has ridiculed the apex court and the intention on this petition appears to be mala fide.
On Tuesday Pakistan Muslim League – Nawaz (PML-N) chief Nawaz Sharif said that Tahir-ul-Qadri stance and intention were incorrect and it is an attempt to sabotage the upcoming general elections.
Chaudhry
Surprised and shocked in Overseas: really, this is where Pakistani SC minds are manipulated by this corrupted system, Failed Government. Dr Tahir Qadri is trying hard to address the issues and which, he even said in peaceful long march. I am not sure what is wrong with Other parties (including PTI wishing fair election) who could accept this opportunity too to strengthen against the Big Mafia. Now due to this mistake of People of Pakistan, this country will go where!. Think he is alone representing the unfortunate public and God help him. May be next 20 years we may see this opportunity again, will it be, too late than. At least we can’t expect SC biased like this. Here Qadri Sahib!, seems our nation is sleeping with so called election lollypop. Only God can change fate of this nation, and that only if nation woke up in reality.
