ISLAMABAD: Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif’s younger son, Hassan Nawaz, reached the Federal Judicial Academy to appear before the Joint Investigation Team (JIT) in the Panama Papers case around 10am Friday to record his statement.
The JIT is investigating the prime minister’s family’s global financial dealings in light of the Supreme Court’s April 20 judgment.
Strict security measures have been put in place. Moreover, Hassan did not speak to the media as no one was allowed to come close to his motorcade.
The premier’s son has been reported to have been carrying some documents with him.
The other day, premier’s elder son, Hussain Nawaz, appeared for the third time before the JIT.
After spending around six hours with the JIT, Hussain emerged out of the building and briefly spoke to the media.
“If the matters proceed in a fair manner then it’s fine otherwise we would present the issue before the Supreme Court and public,” said Hussain.
Hussain informed that he has been summoned again by the JIT for the next session. “I was made to wait for two hours,” he said, adding whoever the JIT summons has to appear before it.
The premier’s son said that he was interrogated in isolation, and was not allowed to be accompanied by a lawyer.
According to sources, Hussain has been asked to reappear before the JIT on Saturday, June 3.
