Maryam Nawaz, the Muslim League's chief organiser and senior vice-president, reacting to the verdict of the three-member bench, said that today's ruling was the last blow in a conspiracy that began with rewriting the Constitution and serving up the Punjab government on a platter to the bench's favourite, Imran, as if to say: "Here, son, break it, so that you can be selected again in the presence and under the supervision of facilitators like us."

The PML-N chief organiser added that the task carried out in 2018 by General Faiz, Justice Khosa and former chief justice Saqib Nisar has now been taken up by the present bench.

Maryam Nawaz said that the majority of the Supreme Court had rebelled against this appalling and brazen facilitation and one-man show. She said the time had come for Parliament to stop this facilitation with its constitutional and legal hands.

The PML-N chief organiser said that it was not enough for the federal cabinet to reject the ruling. Those who had tried to impose the favourite by tearing the Constitution and the law to shreds, she said, should be brought to account.
