Two applications were filed against Nawaz's nomination papers. In the first application, petitioner Sohail Malik contended that the PML-N chief should be disqualified for his involvement in the Asghar Khan case.
The second application against Nawaz was filed by Afshan Ameer, who contended that the PML-N chief was illegally occupying a property (No. S-58-R-49).
Meanwhile, petitioner Afzal Azeem Pahat sought the disqualification of Shahbaz Sharif on the grounds that the latter is ‘mentally unstable’.
However, Nawaz Sharif’s nomination papers for NA-119 were accepted by the ECP.
