The Islamabad High Court has ordered the police to stop harassing candidates and workers affiliated with the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) party, following a petition filed by PTI nominees expressing concerns over alleged police intimidation tactics. The court's ruling emphasized the need for a level playing field in the political arena and underscored the responsibility of law enforcement to ensure fair and transparent elections, free from intimidation or undue influence. The Election Commission assured the court that all complaints had been promptly addressed, but the Chief Justice expressed skepticism and issued a firm directive to cease the harassment of PTI candidates and workers, prioritizing public trust in the electoral process.
