ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) President Shehbaz Sharif here on Saturday did not appear before the accountability court in Ashiana Iqbal Housing scam case.
Shehbaz Sharif’s counsel filed a plea in the accountability court on behalf of his client to grant him exemption from court appearance.
Shehbaz Sharif’s counsel told the court that the PML-N leader was not well due to backache and his doctor had advised him to take rest. The court granted him exemption from appearing on medical grounds.
However, co-accused Fawad Hassan Fawad and Ahad Cheema were presented before the court. The court later adjourned the hearing of the case till July 24.
It may be noted here that the PML-N chief skipped NAB hearing on Friday owing to back pain.
