Islamabad 09-01-2024: Supreme Court of Pakistan laid down a landmark judgment on the subject of lifetime disqualification under Article 62(1)(f); however Mr. Justice Yahya Afridi disagreed with majority judgment for the reasons that the extent of lack of qualification of a member of the Parliament, as envisaged under Article 62(1)(f) of the Constitution of Islamic Republic of Pakistan, 1973, is neither lifelong nor permanent, and the same shall remain effective only during the period the declaration so made by a Court of law remains in force. Therefore, the conclusion so drawn by this Court in Sami Ullah Baloch Versus Abdul Karim Nousherwani (PLD 2018 SC 405) is legally valid, hence affirmed.
