Islamabad: The Supreme Court of Pakistan on Tuesday adjourned hearing into a plea against Nawaz Sharif and Shahbaz Sharif filed by the National Accountability Bureau (NAB), seeking custody of Sharif’s assets, till next month.
NAB prosecutor general prayed to the court that the department wanted custody of Sharif’s assets until it reached the root of the matter which led to a deal after which the Sharif family left the country following military coup of Musharraf.
Deputy Attorney General KK Agha told the court that Sharif family left the country after handing over their assets to the NAB as part of a deal.
The CJ remarked how come assets could be taken into custody without filing a reference in the court.
He sought a reply from the federation regarding the details of the deal and put off the hearing till third week of January.
