The Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) on Thursday rejected four applications filed by the Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) seeking secrecy during the scrutiny of its foreign funding sources.
A three-judge bench headed by Chief Election Commissioner Sardar Mohammad Raza also instructed the scrutiny committee to continue its work and instructed PTI representatives to appear before the committee on Oct 14.
PTI’s founding member Akbar S. Babar had filed the case in 2014, alleging that nearly $3 million in illegal foreign funds were collected through two offshore companies and that money was sent through illegal 'hundi' channels from the Middle East to accounts of 'PTI employees'.
He had also alleged that the foreign accounts used to collect funds were concealed from the annual audit reports submitted to the ECP.

The hypocrisy of PTM (Pakistan Tehrik-e-Munafiqat) knows no boundaries. For years and years, Imran Khan lied through his teeth and told the nation that when he will come into power, accountability will start with him. He said that unless accountability starts at the top, you cannot bring any change.
And yet, PTI is fighting tooth and nails to ensure that the case lodged against them is not opened to public scrutiny. If Imran Khan and PTI have nothing to hide and have no skeletons in the closet, why are they desperate for secrecy?
Now it is time for PTI trolls to abuse and humiliate the Chief Election Commissioner and accuse him of being on PMLN’s pay-roll.
Hopefully this will be the beginning of the end of this fake party and their fake tabdeeli.
[MENTION=1269]Bewal Express[/MENTION], this is the true face of your leader and your party. You should be ashamed of supporting them just like I am ashamed of voting for them. However, I am pleased in a way because I did play my part in helping them get exposed at the federal level.
How will Imran Khan explain this in cricketing terms which he loves to do? Is this a no-ball?
Also, full credit to the ECP for not succumbing (so far) to PTI’s bullying tactics.
