ISLAMABAD (92 News) – Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leader Jahangir Tareen on Friday said that he always believed Article 62 (1)(f) should be for life but was not applicable in his case. In message on social media website, he said: “I always believed 62 1(f) to be for life but not applicable in my case.” The PTI leader said that he had provided full money trail of tax paid Income, property declared in assets of children and not himself on advice of tax consultant. This was the only issue, he said. Tareen went on to say that his review was still pending and InshaALLAH justice will prevail. Earlier, the Supreme Court while announcing the judgemnet in case pertaining to determining the length of disqualification, ruled that the lawmakers disqualified under Article 62(1)(f) of the constitution will be unable to contest elections for the rest of their life. The judgemnet was written and read by Justice Umer Atta Bandial.
