The same user took to Twitter and wrote, "No issues, lelo (take) tissues."

The Supreme Court of Pakistan on Friday disqualified former prime minister Nawaz Sharif and former general secretary of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Jahangir Khan Tareen from standing for elections for the rest of their lives.

The Article 62(1)(f) reads, "A person shall not be qualified to be elected or chosen as a member of Majlis-e-Shoora (Parliament) unless he is sagacious, righteous and non-profligate, honest and righteous, there being no declaration to the contrary by a court of law."

"Nawaz Sharif be like: Acha chalta hon memes main yaad rakhna," tweeted another user.

Another user wrote, "now that is called #JummahMubarak Article 62 Supreme Court #FridayThe13th for Nawaz Sharif :D"
