Panama case: JIT asks NAB to file reference against PM Nawaz and children

ISLAMABAD – After submitting its report in the apex court Monday, the Joint Investigation Team (JIT) has requested the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) to file a reference against Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif and his children – Hussain Nawaz, Hassan Nawaz, and Maryam Safdar.

Capt (r) Muhammad Safdar Awan, the premier’s son-in-law, has also been included in the names forwarded to NAB.

The JIT had reservations regarding the significant gap and disparity among the known and declared source of income and the wealth accumulated have been observed, according to the JIT document.

“The financial structure and health of the companies in Pakistan having linkages to the Respondents also do not substantiate the wealth of Respondents,” said the document.
