Inform­ation minist­er says PTI will soon be banned over 'fundin­g from Hindu and Jewish lobby'KARACHI: Maryam Nawaz has criticised the Supreme Court’s decision to let Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chief Imran Khan off the hook in the disqualification case, saying biasness of those demanding accountability has been exposed. Justice can’t be served with such double standards,” she said in a formal reaction to the apex court’s much-awaited ruling. PML-N leader Hanif Abbasi had filed two petitions against Khan and PTI Secretary General Jahangir Khan Tareen for concealing assets and offshore properties in their nomination papers filed with the Election Commission of Pakistan. Terming Khan honest, the apex court dismissed the plea against him, but declared Tareen dishonest and disqualified him as member of the National Assembly. Addressing reporters outside the apex court, the minister claimed that different parameters of justice were applied to the Panamagate case and petitions against Khan and Tareen.
