Internal bickering: Captain Safdar’s PML-N membership suspended

Safdar had developed differences with party stalwarts Sardar Mehtab Abbasi and Pir Sabir Shah.

Captain Mohammad Safdar’s basic party membership from Pakistan Muslim League – Nawaz (PML-N) has been suspended by the party, Express News reported on Saturday.

The suspension was handed out by Iqbal Zafar Jhagra on the orders of PML-N chief Nawaz Sharif.

Safdar had developed differences with PML-N’s Sardar Mehtab Abbasi and Pir Sabir Shah on allegedly trying to create a power struggle.

Internal bickering had given way to a war of words with senior party leaders criticising each other openly in the media.

Safdar had locked horns with party stalwarts Sardar Mehtab Khan and Pir Sabir Shah, who have dominated party affairs in K-P for years.
