ISLAMABAD: Former prime minister Syed Yousuf Raza Gilani on Thursday filed an intra-court appeal challenging the dismissal of a petition against the rejection of his seven votes in the election to the office of Senate chairman.
Mr Gilani filed the appeal in the Islamabad High Court (IHC) against the judgement of its single-judge bench.
IHC Chief Justice Athar Minallah had on March 24 dismissed Mr Gilani’s petition, saying the petitioner with the support of the Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM) could remove Sadiq Sanjrani through a no-confidence motion.

ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) vice president Shahid Khaqan Abbasi on Tuesday criticised the Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf government for expressing no confidence in the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) and warned that soon the PTI would turn against those who had brought it to power.
Talking to media after attending trial proceedings in the LNG terminal reference in an accountability court, Mr Abbasi said it was the same ECP whose presiding officers had been “picked up in dense fog”.
