PESHAWAR: On Monday, the Election Tribunal of the Peshawar High Court (PHC) reversed the Election Commission of Pakistan’s (ECP) decision to reject the nomination papers of Khurram Zeeshan, Azam Swati, and Murad Saeed, three leaders of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI).<\/p>\n

Following the acceptance of their appeals, the three PTI leaders will be able to run in the April 2 Senate elections.<\/p>\n

Appeals contesting the approval of nomination papers submitted by Fida Muhammad Khan, Robina Khalid, Qaisar Khan, and Daulat Khan of the Pakistan Peoples Party, Shazia of Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam-Fazl, and Azhar Mashwani of the PTI, were, nevertheless, denied, thereby verifying the authenticity of their papers.<\/p>\n
