ISLAMABAD: Senator Ali Zafar ignited a fiery debate in the Senate as he presented a resolution demanding the production order of Senator Ejaz Chaudhry, amidst allegations of election malpractice and unfair treatment towards PTI leaders.
Addressing the Senate on Tuesday, Senator Ali Zafar voiced concerns over what he perceived as injustice against PTI leaders following the recent elections.
