Hafiz Saeed's party candidate warned against using his image
Pakistan's Election Commission has warned independent candidate Sheikh Muhammad Yaqoob against using Lashkar-e-Taiba founder Hafiz Saeed's image in election campaigns. Yaqoob is contesting independently after Saeed's party, Milli Muslim League, was not recognised. The by-polls are being held after the Lahore seat fell vacant due to Nawaz Sharif's disqualification over the Panama Papers case.
