PTI infighting: Party submits show-cause notice to Liaquat Jatoi

ISLAMABAD: The PTI has submitted a show-cause notice to its Sindh leader Liaquat leader for levelling serious allegations against fellow party member, Saifullah Abro, and the leadership of the PTI.

Jatoi, a few days ago, had held a hard-hitting press conference in which he alleged that Abro had been given the Senate ticket by the party leadership in exchange for Rs350mn.

Abro had denied the allegations and served a legal notice to Jatoi, demanding an apology for damaging his reputation.

The PTI’s Central Standing Committee on Discipline and Accountability on Wednesday issued a show-cause notice to Liaquat Jatoi regarding his hard-hitting news conference a day earlier in which he protested distribution of party tickets for Senate polls.

The committee sought a clarification on his controversial statement within 7 days. “You spoke against the party leadership and made serious allegations. Your conduct is a clear violation of party policy and the constitution,” the notice says. It said that the matter was being referred to the Standing Committee on Discipline and Accountability of Sindh Western Region for action.
