LAHORE: Pakistan Peoples’ Party suspended party membership of seasoned politician and former Punjab Governor Senator Sardar Latif Khosa. Former Senator was also kicked out of PPP’s central executive committee.

According to PPP Secretary General Nayyar Bukhari, decision was taken after lawyer Khosa failed to reply to show-cause notice issued to him by party last week.

On September 14, seasoned leader was issued show-cause notice for defending/pleading and representing head of another political party without prior approval of party’s leadership.

“You being member of Central Executive Committee of Peoples Party are defending/ pleading/ representing head of another political party without prior approval of leadership in corruption cases in which he has been convicted and in case against him under official Secrets Act, while delivering speech in lawyers function you criticised state policy regarding cipher,” said notice served to Khosa.
