The Islamabad High Court (IHC) on Thursday restored 10-year disqualification for convicts charged under the National Accountability Ordinance (NAO) and suspended its earlier ruling limiting the same to five years.
The decision was taken by an IHC division bench comprising Justice Mohsin Akhtar Kiyani and Justice Saman Rifat Imtiaz on an appeal filed by the National Accountability Bureau against the disqualification of former Balochistan Mir Faiq Jamali.
The accountability watchdog had on July 25 challenged the IHC order limiting the disqualification to five years, since the National Accountability Ordinance (NAO) provides for 10-year disqualification for a convict.
