Renowned lawyer Akram Sheikh faces a blow, levels serious allegations

ISLAMABAD: Renowned lawyer Akram Sheikh faces a blow.

He claimed on Monday that his all banks accounts have been frozen in consequence of contesting high treason case against former military ruler Pervez Musharraf.

The lawyer added that the restriction on his assets was also in regards to Hanif Abbasi’s petition seeking Prime Minister Imran Khan’s disqualification.

Speaking to the media agencies at Supreme Court premises, he claimed that he has been asked to leave the country immediately.

“I can not pay salary to my employees,” he adds

Sheikh says that everything has been done by Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) for not paying advance tax, adding that FBR is doing anything with the consent of top brass of the government.
