Khawaja Asif Disqualified for life by Islamabad High Court in Iqama Case

Khawaja Asif Disqualified for life by Islamabad High Court in Iqama Case The Islamabad High Court dealt another blow to the ruling Pakistan Muslim League Nawaz after it disqualified the country’s Foreign Minister for life in the disqualification case on Thursday. Khawaja Asif, who is a central leader of PML-N and had contested elections from Sialkot in 2013, was declared ineligible unanimously for holding office, on account of Article 62 (1)(f) of the constitution in a case related to his foreign permit (iqama). ‘Khawaja Asif deliberately concealed his assets’ remarked the court in a short judgment announced by Justice Athar Minallah who headed a three-member larger bench. The Islamabad High Court also directed the Election Commission of Pakistan to de-notify the lawmaker and according to the judgment, Asif will be unable to hold public or party office. Soon after the judgment, Maryam Nawaz, former first daughter, took to Twitter and decried the directives of the court. ~-~~-~~~-~~-~ Please watch: "KP governor House Open for Public || Development in Pakistan"    • KP governor House Open for Public || Devel...   ~-~~-~~~-~~-~
