  • Asif Zardari elected as the 14th President of Pakistan

    Asif Zardari elected as the 14th President of Pakistan

    Lawmakers across Pakistan, the Senate, National Assembly, and the four provincial assemblies, cast their votes to elect the 14th president of the country and Asif Ali Zardari won by securing 411 votes.

    His opponent, Mehmood Khan Achakzai, secured 181 votes.

    The Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) orchestrated the process, which unfolded between 10 am and 4 pm, with meticulous arrangements in place.

    The presidential race sees former President Asif Ali Zardari, representing a coalition of the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N), Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP), and other allied parties, vying for a potential second term. He faces stiff competition from Mahmood Khan Achakzai, President of the Pakhtunkhwa Milli Awami Party and the joint candidate of the opposition.

    Polling stations were set up within the respective houses of parliament, where the election took place through a secret ballot. The Parliament House in Islamabad accommodated senators and MNAs, while the four provincial assemblies served as polling stations for provincial lawmakers.

    During the voting process, PPP Senator Sherry Rehman acted as Zardari’s polling agent, while Senator Shafiq Tareen represented Achakzai. Islamabad High Court Chief Justice Aamir Farooq presided over the proceedings at the Parliament House, with notable figures like Zardari’s children, Bilawal, Bakhtawar, and Aseefa Bhutto-Zardari, in attendance.

    However, not all political parties participated in the election. JUI-F chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman and Jamaat-e-Islami decided against voting, citing concerns over the credibility of the process.

    The newly elected president of Pakistan is slated to be sworn in on Sunday at 4 pm at the President’s House. Chief Justice of Pakistan Justice Qazi Faez Isa will administer the oath, with invitations already issued to guests for the ceremony.

    In the provincial assemblies, strict security measures were enforced to ensure a smooth and transparent electoral process. Election Commission members oversaw proceedings, guaranteeing fairness and peace throughout the voting.

    Despite tension and security concerns, the Election Commission upheld its decision to proceed with the scheduled polling, dismissing requests for postponement from opposition candidate Mahmood Achakzai. This commitment underscores the commission’s dedication to upholding democratic principles and adhering to electoral timelines.

    Cambodia earns new world record for largest ‘Bridal Carry’

    Hundreds of Cambodians braved sticky tropical heat to set an unusual new world record: for the most people performing a “bridal carry” at the same time.

    Late on Friday, 245 men hoisted their partners – wives, girlfriends, sisters, or mothers – with one arm under the legs and one behind the back and held the position for a minute to set the mark, certified by Guinness World Records representatives.

    “I am so happy, it is my first time to participate in such an event to break a world record for Cambodia,” Sam Khan, 25, told AFP before carrying his wife.

    The event drew participants young and old.

    “I am so excited,” 50-year-old mother Heng Pov told AFP while being carried by her son.

    After setting the record, many of the participants carried on with the hold as part of a competition to win a new car.

    The “bridal carry” is so named for the way a groom in some cultures carries his bride over the threshold of their new home.

  • SJC recommends not using  titles ‘judge’, ‘justice’ with Mazahar Naqvi’s name

    SJC recommends not using  titles ‘judge’, ‘justice’ with Mazahar Naqvi’s name

    A five-judge bench of the Supreme Judicial Council (SJC) has released a 33-page detailed opinion on Friday,  stating that former judge of the apex court, Sayyed Mazahar Ali Akbar Naqvi, has committed misconduct. The council recommended his removal from office and advised against using the titles ‘Justice’ or ‘Judge’ with his name in the future.

    The SJC discovered that the judge committed several instances of misconduct, which harmed the reputation of the judiciary.

    While Mr Naqvi had resigned a day before the SJC began proceedings on nine complaints against him under Article 209(6), the council decided to continue with its proceedings, with Chief Justice of Pakistan (CJP) Qazi Faez Isa saying it was “necessary to remove the misperception that the institution of judiciary is above the law”.
    The Supreme Judicial Council, led by the Chief Justice of Pakistan, praised the Pakistan Bar Council (which oversees lawyers) and Advocate Mian Dawood for filing complaints to support the rule of law and accountability.

    The council found Naqvi guilty of violating his oath of office and the Code of Conduct for judges after at least five allegations made by the complainants were proven true.

    The council explained that it could not be stated that Mr Naqvi was “untouched by greed”, “was above reproach”, his conduct was “free from impropriety expected of a judge” in his official and private affairs and thus he violated Article II and III of the Code of Conduct. According to the SJC opinion, it was clear that he violated Article IV as his actions were swayed by consideration of “personal advantage”.

  • Oath-taking of MNAs on reserved seats unconstitutional: Omar Ayub Khan

    Oath-taking of MNAs on reserved seats unconstitutional: Omar Ayub Khan

    Omer Ayub Khan, lawmaker backed by Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) and Sunni Ittehad Council (SIC), strongly objected to the oath-taking of members of the National Assembly (MNAs) on reserved seats, calling it “unconstitutional.

    A group of newly elected lawmakers on reserved seats in the NA were sworn in. NA Speaker Ayaz Sadiq administered the oath to the MNAs amidst chanting by PTI-backed SIC lawmakers.

    Taking the floor, Ayub — Imran Khan’s pick for the leader of the opposition — said: “Today’s oath-taking of MNAs on reserved seats is illegal and has no [legal] standing.”

    Raising questions over the oathtaking, the PTI leader asked a country can be run without the rule of law. “The system cannot work like this.”

    The Peshawar High Court (PHC) has extended a stay order on the oath-taking ceremony for lawmakers who were supposed to take their oaths on reserved seats supported by the PTI-backed SIC. This extension lasts until March 13.
