An accountability court in Lahore extended judicial remand of PML-N President and Opposition Leader in National Assembly (NA) Shehbaz Sharif and his son Hamza Shehbaz until December 3 in a money laundering case.
The accountability Judge Jawadul Hassan declared Shehbaz’s wife Nusrat, son Salman, daughter Rabia Imran and son-in-law as proclaimed offenders over their perpetual absence from the trial proceedings.
Judge Jawadul Hassan noted that all the absconding accused were given 1 month’s time to show up in court but they didn’t.
Jail authorities produced the Shehbaz Sharif and son Hamza Shehbaz before the court in a bullet-proof vehicle as it resumed hearing.
Shehbaz Sharif’s lawyer complained to the judge that he was not provided with verified documents by prosecution witnesses, to which the prosecutor of NAB replied that the record the defence counsel is objecting to belongs to his clients.
