Panama Papers in SC: Sharif Family may get into trouble

ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf’s (PTI) lawyer Naeem Bokhari has assured the court to complete argument on the case in next proceeding.

 

During the hearing, Justice Azmat remarked that it’s the responsibility of Sharif’s family to tell from where the money for London flats came.

 

He said the court will be compelled to follow Naeem Bokhari if Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) fails to submit proper documents.

 

Earlier today, PM Nawaz’s daughter Maryam Nawaz submitted reply in SC and denied accusations of being beneficial owner of offshore companies and flats but an authorized signatory as per trust deed.

 

She said that Mayfair flats are owned by her brother Hussain Nawaz while she also termed documents pertaining to Nescol Company as forged.

 

Maryam Nawaz said that her signatures on documents of Nescol Company are also fake.

 

The reply further stated that shares of offshore companies were issued to Hussain Nawaz on July 4, 2006.

 

She said that Hussain Nawaz informed about the offer of Al-Sani family in 2005 after which settlements were carried out in June 2016.

 

Hussain Nawaz wanted to form trust about offshore companies which will allow Shariah distribution of assets after his death, she added.
