SHC issues notices on plea seeking judicial officers for elections
The Sindh High Court (SHC) has issued notices to the Election Commission of Pakistan, Advocate General for Sindh, Attorney General for Pakistan (AGP), and others on a plea seeking appointment of judicial officers for the upcoming general elections.
While appearing before a two-member bench, headed by Acting Chief Justice Aqeel Ahmad Abbasi, the counsel for the PTI, Barrister Ali Tahir, also requested the withdrawal of a petition seeking a restraining order against the allocation of the election symbol of ‘bat’ to any other political party. “Have you already secured the bat symbol,” asked Justice Abbasi.
