SC reserves verdict in PB-16 Loralai election matter

26 Jan, 2016

ISLAMABAD: The Supreme Court on Tuesday reserved verdict in a election matter over Balochistan Assembly's PB-16 Loralai constituency.

The three-member SC bench headed by Chief Justice Anwar Zaheer Jamali reserved the verdict in the case after hearing arguments of both parties.

In 2013 general election, Ubaid Ullah Jan of Pakhtoonkhwa Milli Awami Party secured 9016 votes while runner-up candidate Pakistan Muslim League Nawaz's Muhammad Khan obtained 8738. Muhammad Khan challenged Ubaid's nomination papers before a Election Tribunal after announcement of official result of the constituency.
