ISLAMABAD: The petitioner in the foreign funding case against the Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI), Akbar S. Babar, on Wednesday challenged the decision of the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP)’s scrutiny committee to keep the party’s financial documents secret.
An application to this effect was filed with the ECP, assailing the scrutiny committee’s order of Feb 9 to keep the documents, including those of over a dozen undeclared bank accounts of the PTI revealed on the instructions of State Bank of Pakistan (SBP), secret.
