However, the PTI lawyers did not appear before the court and later requested to hear them before deciding the plea.<br \/>\nECP had filed a review petition at Peshawar High Court against its December 26 verdict, which had suspended the ECP\u2019s order and restored the party\u2019s \u2018bat\u2019 symbol till a final decision in the case.<br \/>\nECP, in its order, had declared PTI\u2019s intra-party polls \u201cillegal\u201d and stripped it of using the \u2018bat\u2019 symbol.
