Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) firebrand leader Sher Afzal Marwat has been booted out of the party’s top deicison-making bodies — core and political committees — after he censured his senior colleagues and refused to work under them.
Speaking to the media outside Adiala jail, PTI Secretary General Omar Ayub said Marwat has been expelled from the party’s core and political committees on the instructions of party founder Imran Khan.
The PTI secretary general said Khan has directed to issue a show-cause notice to Marwat as he attempted to “spoil” ties with Saudi Arabia.
Ayub, who is also the Leader of the Opposition in the National Assembly, said Marwat was warned time and again against violating the party’s policy.
“The PTI founder said Marwat tried to damage his personal relations with the kingdom as he has excellent ties with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman,” Omar said.
The political committee has been directed to take disciplinary action against Marwat, he added.
