Islamabad, August 31 (TNS): Director General Operations National Accountability Bureau (NAB) Zahir Shah said that the reference against the Sharif family will be filed within due time.
The stance of all the institutions in the Panama case has been recorded, he said while speaking to media persons here.
Shah added that the statements of Sharif family members are present with the Joint Investigation Team (JIT), which was formed to probe former Nawaz Sharif’s assets.
On July 28, the Supreme Court had ordered NAB to file a reference against Sharif family and Finance Minister Ishaq Dar within six weeks. The NAB had prepared to file the reference and even recorded the statement of Wajid Zia, head of JIT, after a court order.
However, the former prime minister and Ishaq Dar failed to appear before NAB after they were summoned. Instead, the two politicians had sent a letter to the bureau, through their legal counsel, stating that they will not appear until a verdict on the review petitions, filed in the SC against Panamagate, is announced.
