Former Punjab CM Parvez Elahi. SCREENGRAB
An election tribunal has dismissed election petitions filed by PTI leader Chaudhry Parvez Elahi and his wife Qaisara Elahi against an ECP notification regarding victory of their nephew in elections at a Punjab Assembly constituency.
The ECP had declared Chaudhry Salik Hussain the winning candidate at PP-32 constituency in Gujrat. Elahi, whose wife is the sister of Chuadhry Shujaat, had challenged the results of PP-32, nominating the ECP and Salik as respondents in the case.
The petitioner had argued that the ECP wrongly issued a victory notification as according to Form-45, the declared winner had actually ranked third.
