ISLAMABAD: The Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) has approved for a hearing a petition seeking to disqualify Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) MPA Faryal Talpur. The petition was filed by Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) MPAs Arsalan Taj and Rabia Azfar. An earlier petition filed by the MPAs had been rejected because the petitioners didn’t follow up on it. They filed a case against her for concealing assets in her yearly wealth statement. They believe this means she should be disqualified from holding public office.
