Shares
ISLAMABAD: The Supreme Court on Friday dismissed the review petition filed by deposed prime minister Nawaz Sharif, his children and Finance Minister Ishaq Dar against the Panama case decision.
The court had reserved its verdict on the review petitions after the lawyers for all petitioners completed their arguments earlier in the day.
A five-judge SC bench headed by Justice Asif Saeed Khosa had taken up the petitions seeking review of the court’s July 28 judgement which disqualified Nawaz Sharif and ordered the filing of corruption references against Sharif, his children — Hussain, Hassan and Maryam Nawaz, son-in-law retired Captain Mohammad Safdar and Ishaq Dar.
"For reasons to be recorded later, all these review petitions are dismissed," Justice Khosa announced. The reasons for the judgement will be revealed later in the detailed order.
