PTI to file reference against ministers

Pakistan Tehreek e Insaf (PTI) Vice President Fawad Chaudhry threatened to file a reference on Wednesday against the federal ministers who do not distance themselves from the government’s decision against Supreme Court (SC) polls verdict till Thursday night.

Fawad made this announcement while talking to media outside Lahore High Court (LHC), saying drifting away from the apex court orders can result in 3-year imprisonment.

The PTI leader claimed that the reference will be filed in the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) under Article 63 against the cabinet members who stand against the top court decision.

“Court’s decision is Pakistan’s victory,” he said adding that it was not any party’s success.

In a surprising claim, PTI’s Fawad said: “Pakistan Muslim League- Nawaz (PML-N) Chief Organiser Maryam Nawaz is plotting against PML-N supremo Nawaz Shareef.”
