An election tribunal probing rigging allegations in NA-154, Multan constituency announced on Wednesday.
According to short order, Justice Rana Zahid Mehmood declared the poll result null and void in favour of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf’s (PTI) Jahangir Tareen and ordered re-election.
PML-N leader Siddiq Baloch on Wednesday expressed reservations about his disqualification by the election tribunal in NA-154 rigging and fake degree case.
Baloch insisted that he was elected from NA-154, Lodhran, after free and fair elections and that he had a genuine degree.
“I am ready to accept every punishment if my degree is found to be bogus,” he said.
Speaking to the media, Tareen said the verdict puts a big question mark on the credibility of the entire 2013 general elections
