in this i agree with honorable judges, ECP is forum for such disqualification. Judges also said that in Yousaf Raza Gillani's case, the then PM was first convicted than was disqualified. If money laundering is proved against Shareefs thn NS can be disqualified. Disqualification under article 62, 63 is a matter of ECP
I don't agree with this. Going by the law being interpreted now, SC could convict him only. Please recall there are two orders in the case, one for conviction and one for disqualification. Justice Chaudhry in second order ruled that SC had powers to disqualify without directing the speaker to file a reference. Please recall speaker refused to file a reference for PM disqualication when directed to comply with 1st order. Interestingly NS was the petitioner at that time.
