A long-winding case — filed by Babar and others — regarding the scrutiny of sources of PTI’s foreign funding has been pending since 2014. However, the PTI had petitioned the IHC, questioning the ECP’s jurisdiction in the matter. In February 2017, the IHC had remanded back to the ECP for a fresh review of its jurisdiction. In March 2018, a scrutiny committee had been formed to look into PTI’s foreign funding accounts to ascertain any wrongdoing. Since then, the PTI sought secrecy in the scrutiny of its foreign funding.
