ISLAMABAD: Minister for Information, Broadcasting and National Heritage Senator Pervaiz Rashid on Thursday said that Imran Khan's statement that Judicial Commission's verdict would result in occurrence of election in 2015 was not only a violation of clear directives of Judicial Commission but also tantamounts to insult of a higher judicial forum.
In a statement, he urged the Judicial Commission to take notice of Imran's statement.
He said that Imran makes tall claims of justice and transparency but his statement has shown that he wants a decision of his choice from the commission.
Pervaiz Rashid said that before Judicial Commission announced any decision or give any kind of recommendations, Imran has given his own decision which was a murder of justice.
He said instead of announcing decision on the sub judice matter he should act to implement justice (R) Wajihuddin's recommendation on rigging, irregularities, malpractices in PTI party elections.
This he said smacks of double standards and double talk by Imran Khan who demand that not only alleged rigging in 2013 election should be investigated but those responsible for it should also be identified and punished.
But in the case of rigging proved in the party election, he has simply appointed a new Chief Election Commissioner and allowed those responsible for rigging to circumvent investigation.
He has thus obstructed justice and acted against his own principle of punishing the guilty and taking the matter to its logical conclusion, Pervaiz Rashid added.
