JUDGMENT
JUDGMENT ' NASIM HASAN SHAH, ACTG.CJ.---This judgment will dispose of the abovementioned two appeals as both of them are directed against one and the same order namely the order dated 16-10-1989 passed by the Election Tribunal (Mr. Justice Salim Akhtar, Judge, Sindh High Court) in Election Petition No,1 of 1988). For reasons to be recorded later, Civil Appeal No, K-160 of 1989 filed by Haji Muhammad Ibrahim Hingorjo is dismissed and the impugned judgment of the Election Tribunal is upheld declaring him not to be the duly elected member to the Senate on the ground that he is neither a technorcrat nor professional. ' However, the connected appeal filed by Youssouf Shaheen (Civil Appeal No,K-163 of 1989) directed against the order of the Election Tribunal dated 1640-1989 holding him also to be ineligible to contest elections from the seats reserved for technocrats is accepted. On the evidence and material produced by him, it is found that he is a "professional" and a "technocrat". Since Youssouf Shaheen is the only other contesting candidate eligible to contest election, he is declared as the duly elected candidate against the said seat, which has become vacant on account of Haji Muhammad Ibrahim Hingorjo being found disqualified to contest election and be elected thereto.
