Nawaz Sharif's new response surfaces in Avenfield reference case

ISLAMAMABD – Former prime minister and Pakistan Muslim League Nawaz (PML-N) supremo Nawaz Sharif on Thursday submitted a plea in the accountability court requesting to defer verdict in Avenfield reference for few days citing Kulsoom Nawaz’s critical health.

As per details garnered, the representative of Nawaz Sharif, Zafar Khan submitted the plea in the court. The statement of the plea reads that he won’t be able to appear before the court tomorrow (July 6), due to Kulsoom Nawaz’s critical health. He also requested to postpone the verdict.

On the other hand, the PML-N spokesperson Maryam Aurangzeb said that Nawaz’s demand to delay the court verdict of July 6 is legal so the accountability court is requested to announce the verdict on July 25.

The courts are symbol of justice therefore, a legal plea should be considered, she said.
