The Islamabad High Court has halted the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) from officially announcing the victors of the elections in NA-46, NA-47, and NA-48. This development follows petitions lodged by Amir Mughal, Shoaib Shaheen, and Mohammad Ali Bukhari, who contested as independent candidates with the support of the PTI. They contested the outcomes of the February 8 elections, where their adversaries Anjum Aqeel Khan, Tariq Fazal Chaudhry, and Raja Khurram Shahzad Nawaz were declared triumphant by the ECP. Despite the ECP initially instructing to maintain the status quo, they subsequently issued notices affirming Khan, Chaudhry, and Raja as the successful candidates. In reaction, the court accepted the appeals and temporarily suspended the election results.
