October 08, 2017

London, Oct 08 (INP): Former prime minister Nawaz Sharif’s daughter, Maryam Nawaz, on Sunday commenting on ongoing corruption cases against Sharif family, said the whole world knows ‘this is revenge’. Speaking to journalists before leaving for Pakistan from London’s Heathrow Airport, she said Sharif family will test the judicial system by appearing before courts despite all the reservations. To a question regarding Nawaz Sharif’s re-election as PML-N’s President, she stressed it is party’s democratic right and no one should object to it. She said the things going on in Pakistan for more than one and a half years are in front of everyone now and the government will complete its tenure despite all the hurdles. To a question, Maryam said her brothers Hassan and Hussain will appear before the court but it is up to them to decide about their return to Pakistan. The couple has been summoned by the Accountability Court for appearance today (Monday) in the graft case against the members of Sharif family including Nawaz Sharif, his two sons Hassan and Hussain, his daughter Maryam Nawaz and her husband Capt (r) Safdar. Marryam said that she and her family respect the constitution and the law. Thus she and her husband are returning to the country to appear before the court. The democratically government of PML-N will complete its tenure, she added. INP/LK
