ISLAMABAD: The Supreme Court Tuesday reserved the verdict on the Sunni Ittehad Council's (SIC) plea against the Peshawar High Court's (PHC) verdict upholding the Election Commission of Pakistan's (ECP) decision denying them the reserved seats.
A 13-member full court bench led by Chief Justice of Pakistan (CJP) Qazi Faez Isa conducted the hearing today with Barrister Salman Akram Raja, representing Kanwal Shauzab, and SIC's Faisal Siddiqui presenting their arguments before the court.
The bench also comprises Justice Syed Mansoor Ali Shah, Justice Muneeb Akhtar, Justice Yahya Afridi, Justice Amin-ud-Din Khan, Justice Jamal Khan Mandokhail, Justice Muhammad Ali Mazhar, Justice Athar Minallah, Justice Syed Hassan Azhar Rizvi, Justice Ayesha Malik, Justice Shahid Waheed, Justice Irfan Saadat Khan and Justice Naeem Akhtar Afghan.
'ECP tried to suppress its record before court'
During the hearing today, SIC's lawyer said that the ECP's decision on the allocation of reserved seats to the Balochistan Awami Party (BAP) was in accordance with the law and the electoral body was simply behaving as if its decision on the said issue didn't exist.
"Can a party which won 18 general seats be allocated 30 reserved seats?" the counsel questioned.
At this, CJP Isa said: "If your logic is applied then you should get no seats at all as you didn't win any seats."
The counsel further said that the ECP has allocated reserved seats to the Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam-Fazl (JUI-F).
He also stressed that SIC chief Hamid Raza had submitted a document showing his affiliation with the PTI.
"If we accept your arguments then the reserved seats would be allocated to the PTI," the chief justice remarked.
In response, Siddiqui said that the reserved seats would in fact be allocated to the SIC which has a presence in the parliament.
Presenting his arguments, Barrister Raja said the PTI-backed candidates were declared independent by the ECP.
"The ECP didn't submit complete documents [in the court]," the lawyer said.
Reacting to the counsel's remarks, Justice Minallah said that the electoral body failed to fulfil its responsibilities as a constitutional body.
"The ECP tried to suppress the [actual] record before the SC," the judge remarked.
He also stressed that the SIC chief was already a nominee of the PTI even before the apex court's verdict revoking the party's bat electoral symbol.
"No one is talking about the right to vote [...] people voted for a certain political party.
