Appeal against Nawaz Shari’s nomination papers returned with objection

The registrar Election Appellate Tribunal on Monday objected and returned the appeal filed against the acceptance of nomination papers of former prime minister and PML-N supremo Nawaz Sharif for the National Assembly seat (NA-130), Lahore, reported 24NewsHD TV channel.  

The appellant, Advocate Ishtiaq Ahmad, from the same constituency, was of the view that since the Supreme Court (SC) had declared the PML-N supremo disqualified for life, therefore he was not eligible to contest the election. “You are requested to please reject his nomination papers,” read the appeal.
