The
Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) dismissed on 8th Feb 2018 Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairperson Imran Khan’s request to disqualify Khyber Pakhtunkhwa MPA Ziaullah Afridi. While announcing its verdict on the case, the ECP declared Ziaullah, a disgruntled PTI member, eligible to hold the provincial assembly seat. The ECP had reserved the verdict on the case on January 31. Imran had filed a reference against Ziaullah, saying the latter had joined Pakistan Peoples Party and therefore could not stay in the provincial assembly on a PTI ticket. Ziaullah, who was the minister for mines and mineral development in the KP government, was dismissed over charges of corruption in his department. The MPA has also criticised Imran and Jamaat-e-Islami chief
Siraj-ul-Haq for illegally appointing the managing director of Bank of Khyber.
