****ISLAMABAD: The Supreme Court, suspending the Election Commission of Pakistan’s disqualification order, permitted Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) member Waheeda Shah to participate in the upcoming elections, Express News reported on Friday.
A three member bench conducted the hearing where they nullified her disqualification and ordered that the returning officer accept her nomination papers.
PPP’s electoral candidate for the by-polls for Sindh Assembly seat PS-53, she had made headlines in 2012 after she was caught on camera slapping an election commission polling officer and allegedly interfering in the polling process on the voting day.
In March 2012, the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) announced a two-year ban on Shah from taking part in elections and nullified the result of the Badin by-poll that took place on February 25, 2012. Hence, Shah had to give up the seat she had won.
In November 2012, the member from Sindh, Justice (retd) Hamid Ali Mirza, the then chief election commissioner, voted against her disqualification.
Shah again appealed at the Sindh High Court and the ECP but neither was she allowed to contest elections and nor did she get her seat back. As a last resort, she appealed before the Supreme Court which ordered the ECP to allow the PPP candidate to submit her nomination papers.

Baychari waheeda ko bil akhir insaaf mil he gia:D
Making a thread out of this most stupid news item. Jab N$ supreme court ki eant se eant bajha raha tha, jab CJ who belonged to Sindh, hid in a room to save himself from goons of PML(N), nothing happened. is 'bachari' ne to sirf ek thaparh hi mara tha aor us ki bhi is ko saza milli oar maufi mang li thi. Punjab ke sher N$ ko na to contempt of court ki saza mili na hi us ne maufi mangi.
