The Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) on Saturday filed a review petition at the Peshawar High Court (PHC) against its single-bench ruling on Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf’s (PTI) iconic electoral 'bat' symbol.
On December 26, the high court announced the verdict on PTI’s petition challenging the ECP's verdict, which had declared the party's intra-party polls "illegal" and stripped it of using the 'bat' symbol.
While announcing a reserved verdict, the PHC suspended the ECP's order and restored the party's 'bat' symbol till a final decision on the petition. The court also stated that a double bench will hear the matter after winter vacations.
In its petition, the ECP has requested the court to review the PTI's intra-party elections and its decision related to the election symbol.
