ISLAMABAD: The hearing of appeals files by the Sharif family regarding the Avenfield verdict and the transfer of the Al-Azizia and Flagship references to another court commenced today in the
The two member bench presiding in the courtroom comprises of Justice Aamer Farooq and Justice Miangul Hassan Aurangzeb. As the hearing proceeded, Justice Farooq allowed the defense to make their arguments regarding the transfer of the Al-Aziza and Flagship references.
Nawaz’s counsel Khawaja Haris argued that the cases should be transferred because the Avenfield verdict has shown the kind of legal reasoning the Judge Mohammed Bashir is an advocate of and that these cases require more scrutiny.
Justice Aurangzeb further questioned the defense if they had submitted their appeals to the Supreme Court, to which the defense replied that the Supreme Court chose not to entertain their request. The counsel further argued that the investigation officers in all three cases are different while the defense and their witnesses remain the same.
Haris also informed the court that Panama JIT’s Wajis Zia’s cross examination is currently ongoing with regard to the Al Aziza flagship references.
The hearing is ongoing.
