ISLAMABAD: Former chief justice of Pakistan Iftikhar Muhammad Chaudhry says a disqualified person again becomes qualified to contest elections after end to the disqualification period.
In a statement, he said he cannot comment on any individual (Yusuf Raza Gilani’s) case as the matter is sub-judice, but generally speaking about the law and constitution, he believes that the end of disqualification period means a person is again qualified to contest elections. He said Article 62 is about qualification and Article 63 is about disqualification. He said the Supreme Court has clearly laid down a principle in Abdul Ghafoor Lehri case in 2013 that the person becomes eligible after end of disqualification period.
