Tehreek e Labbaik Pakistan gets clean chit
Shares
The Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) has recently submitted a report concerning the compliance with the Supreme Court's ruling in the Faizabad sit-in case. In this report, the ECP has absolved Tehreek-e-Labbaik Pakistan (TLP) of allegations related to engaging in activities detrimental to the state.
Previously, the ECP had requested the Interior Ministry to investigate the TLP's involvement in anti-state actions. The resulting report from the Interior Ministry indicated that the TLP had not been engaged in any such activities.
The report also examined the sources of funding for the TLP. According to the Scrutiny Committee's findings, the party received a relatively small amount of Rs1.5 million from sources considered prohibited.
However, the ECP's report argues that this sum is minor and insufficient to classify Tehreek-e-Labbaik's funding as foreign.
Furthermore, the report states that there is no concrete evidence to categorize the TLP as an anti-state organization. Subsequently, the ECP retracted its notice against the TLP and implemented the Supreme Court's decision in the Faizabad sit-in case.
