Pakistan Muslim League - Nawaz (PML-N) also has members linked to cases of fake degrees, including MPA Safdar Gill. The Lahore High Court will hear Gill's on March 27.
The verification of degrees started in 2010 after reports about several fake degree holders in the national and provincial assemblies surfaced and became a source of national and international embarrassment.
The Supreme Court, in its judgement on June 14, 2010, had ordered the Election Commission of Pakistan to investigate and initiate action against those found to have used forged education documents. While a number of legislators filed their documents, the Higher Education Commission could not complete the process, even after the passage of nearly three years.

By this time investigative journalism in Pakistan could have been able to unearth all the fake degree of MPA/ MNA exposing them to public . this could have been a very good service to the nation and a trend and inspiration for others. Opportunity lost ..
One down many to go :(
