Pakistan Excludes President From Election Restriction

[bhangra12345]

Hmm after reading the report on Pakistan Defence, I am not sure about what article is being used to challenge Mushy's dual office.



So my guess is that 43 (1) is the reason Mushy is choosing to step down as Army Chief before the new election, and that is the basis behind challenging his current dual office role.

It is not about Pakistan's constitution. It is about PCO. SC has not reopened a case. In its earlier case, it upheld the validity of PCO but in todays case it is interpreting the PCO, where Mushy was given the exclusion.

It in 2002 allowed mushy to continue or give exclusion to office of profit, today in 2007, it is debating when that exclusion will end.
