 ISLAMABAD JULY 21 (TNS): Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) leader Talal Chaudhry says the case against the prime minister is political in nature.

He said the prime minister has faced cases before. We don’t care about the sentence; it is enough for us that our prime minister is Sadiq and Amin, and added by saying that Nawaz Sharif’s political opponents cannot defeat him in the political arena and thus have pinned their hopes on the court.”

He said it is not important what the decision will be. The case of Nawaz Sharif is completing China Pakistan Economic Corridor, defeating terrorism and ending load-shedding in the country. His fight is for Pakistan, it is not personal, he claimed.

Reserving its judgment on Friday, the three member bench hearing the Panama Papers case observed that matters pertaining to the PM’s disqualification would be evaluated and the apex court would not back down from its decision.

During Friday’s hearing, the bench also directed for the confidential Volume X of the JIT report to be made available to the premier’s counsel, Khawaja Harris. The judges remarked that they want to keep everything transparent.

The bench observed that it will operate strictly within the remits of the law and not trample anyone’s individual rights.
