ISLAMABAD The Supreme Court has ordered that charges relating to May 9 be resolved within four months, which has increased the worry among Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) lawmakers that they may be disqualified, according to a story published by The News on Tuesday.
Party members have actively debated the matter, voicing their dissatisfaction with the judiciary and their concern that the trial courts might not be able to uphold justice in the present situation. Since any conviction instantly disqualifies a person from the Senate, National Assembly, or provincial assemblies, they are concerned that convictions may result in the disqualification of other PTI lawmakers.
Party officials are responding by looking for methods to avoid a situation like this. Since other approaches have not worked, it has been suggested that the option of discussion be revived.
