Election Commission to announce PTI's foreign funding case verdict tomorrow

 ECP reserved the verdict in PTI's foreign funding case in June after concluding the hearing after 7 years

The Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) today said it will announce the verdict of PTI's foreign funding case tomorrow, August 2. The ECP has issued the cause list for tomorrow which includes PTI’s foreign funding case verdict.

The three member bench led by the Chief Election Commissioner Sikandar Sultan Raja would declare the verdict of the case filed by PTI’s founding member Akbar S Babar. It took ECP to more than 7 years to conclude the case. The PTI used every tactic to delay the proceedings of the case and repeatedly seek stay orders from different courts. ECP formed a scrutiny committee to investigate the allegations of foreign and prohibited funding. The scrutiny committee submitted its damning report to ECP. 

 After failing to get relief from courts, PTI launched massive propaganda campaign against Chief Election Commissioner Raja Sikandar Sultan to bring him under pressure. But he refused to bow down and decided to announce the verdict of PTI's foreign funding case.
