ISLAMABAD: The Supreme Court on Wednesday discharged the contempt of court notice against Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chairman Imran Khan, Express News reported.
The apex court resumed the hearing today.
While speaking to the media after the notice was discharged, Imran reiterated that the word “shameful” was used against the conduct of presiding officers in May 11 elections only and not for the judiciary. He said that the party’s 2,500-page long white paper documents the rigging.
The PTI chairman stated that the matter is about the future of Pakistan and the only objective of his comments was to have fair and free elections in the country.
He further stated that May 11 elections were the first one to be held under judicial supervision and only the court can be called for justice.
“If the rigging incidents during the general elections are not investigated, the next election will not be a fight over the mandate but rather over who is better at rigging,” said Imran.
