ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) spokesman Fawad Chaudhry on Sunday said the Panama Papers case will hopefully reach is logical conclusion by the end of the week.
Addressing a press conference, he said the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) has still not submitted any objection to the Joint Investigation Team’s report.
“We hope the Panama case will reach its logical conclusion by the end of the week,” he said.
He said the assets of Nawaz Sharif started to rise gradually after he came to power in the 1990s, and money continued to flow out of Pakistan through a organised network.
He added that the prime minister received gifts worth one billion rupees between 2010-2015. “He gifted Rs82 million to Maryam who then gifted it back to Nawaz,” he claimed.
Fawad Chaudhry also claimed that Nawaz Sharif used his party Pakistan Muslim League (PML-N) as a tool to whiten his ill-gotten wealth.
He said the Hussain Nawaz owns thirteen companies as revealed in the JIT report which includes nine loss-making companies.
The PTI leader said those defending the Sharif family should defend the country first. “Everyone must be held accountable but it should start from the ruling party,” he maintained.
He advised others who were calling the report a conspiracy to first read the report. “When the Urdu translation of the JIT report is out, it will be clear what ‘seems/likely’ means,” he said.
He also hinted that there was reports of a change in leadership with the PML-N.
