ISLAMABAD: The Islamabad High Court (IHC) will announce its verdict on pleas filed by former premier Nawaz Sharif, his daughter Maryam Nawaz and son-in-law Captain (retd) Muhammad Safdar challenging the Avenfield verdict against them shortly.
A two-judge bench comprising Justice Athar Minallah and Justice Miangul Hassan Aurangzeb heard the petitions filed by former premier Nawaz Sharif, his daughter Maryam Nawaz and son-in-law Capt (retd) Safdar.
National Accountability Bureau (NAB) prosecutor Akram Qureshi concluded his arguments in the case. During Tuesday's hearing, the bench had directed Qureshi to conclude his arguments within 30 minutes and said that a verdict will be announced today even if arguments are not concluded.
After the NAB prosecutor concluded his arguments, Nawaz's counsel, Khawaja Harris, presented brief arguments following which the court reserved its judgment.
A large number of Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) leaders, including Shehbaz Sharif, Pervaiz Rashid and Khurram Dastgir, are present in the courtroom for the hearing.
