I still don't understand on what legal basis does this show that Nawaz Sharif was ever required to disclose this information? Does this proof dishonesty? The only way the judges can disqualify Nawaz Sharif is if they can show in their judgement that Nawaz Sharif was dishonest. They've already...

I'm going through the judge's comment which is letting me understand the legal hurdles faced by the Court. It looks like Nawaz Sharif won't be held accountable for the London flats because the petitioners have been unable to prove Maryam was a dependent on Nawaz Sharif. Exactly! You said this...

They are asking questions because the want the petitioners to bring forward arguments. They need to record what the petitioners are saying. Going by the original judgement, it seems that Naeem Bukhari actually did well on the first day.

Did they not say on Thursday/Friday that it wasn't proved that Maryam wasn't the PM's dependent?

Does that prove dishonesty? Has the PM ever been required to disclose that he was a chairman of a company? Sheikh Rasheed's argument that a person cannot be honest in Lahore and dishonest in Islamabad may come into play. For this however, it has to be proved that the PM lied on the UAE visa...

What undisputed fact are you referring to? None of the 13 questions have been answered in a way that proves beyond doubt that Nawaz Sharif was not honest. There are loopholes everywhere.

This is what Justice Ejaz Afzal Khan said It looks the the thirteen questions asked to the JIT were for the purpose of sending a reference to the Accountability Court. Despite damning observations of the justices, if no action is taken Nawaz Sharif will only get stronger and we might get into...

I went through most of the pages of the judgement. Three judges that ruled in favour of Nawaz Sharif. EJAZ AFZAL KHAN, J Said: In his judgement, he was firmly against using 62/63. He will not disqualify Nawaz Sharif come what may: he will send it to an Accountability Court. Unlike Justice...

Unfortunately, the Supreme Court does not work that way. Zafar Hijazi will have zero impact on the case.

From the 20th April judgement: Ijaz ul Ahsan will say. The petitioners have still failed to prove the Maryam was a dependent of Nawaz. Therefore, even though the JIT has proved Maryam was the beneficial owner, this alone is not going to be a ground for disqualification. The judge will be...

He's lying. The Court has already made it known there are legal grounds but as on 20th April, there was not enough evidence to disqualify Nawaz Sharif based on 62/63. Two judges out of three have already disqualified him based on 62/63 so for the rest to now say there's are not enough legal...

Notes and observations will be Does he give any basis for his claim?

Edit. I misunderstood the poste.

Reading the judgement, it appears that oral hearings are only part of the process. The real process of writing and deliberating the judgement has just begun. That is why it took so long for the SC in the first place. 600! pages of interpreting the law. The final judgement may not take that long...

https://www.samaa.tv/PanamaFinal.pdf This is the April 20 Judgement. I've gone through parts if it and it is a very interesting read. It gives us an idea of the constraints of the court. The quality of writing goes to show that these judges are of high integrity. I was wrong to doubt them...

The will still have to decided whether or not he is na-ehl based on 62/63.

He's not going to be disclosing his other assets to anyone. Emergency meeting has been called to discuss what will happen in the event of an adverse decision. He nisar is not attending this meeting. Looks like he's the only guy in Pml with a conscience.

I don't understand how they can not disqualify Nawaz Sharif when two judges wanted to disqualify him and three wanted further investigation. Further investigations only reinforced what the two disqualifying judges were saying. The judges have said the JIT report was "zabardast." If the JIT...

Whatever the verdict, one thing is apparent: Sharifs are being special treatment. Everyone is not equal in the eyes of the law--at least not in Pakistan.

That's a good assessment. The judiciary hasn't really done itself any favours with its past conduct. Nawaz Sharif is likely to get away with it legally. Politically it will be interesting. A criminal trial against Nawaz would give some momentum to the opposition. On the other hand, they will...
