Earlier on June 9, an accountability court in Islamabad had dismissed three pleas against auction of former prime minister Nawaz Sharif’s seized properties.
Accountability Judge Asghar Ali had announced this decision on the three applications moved by Ashraf Malik, Aslam Aziz and Iqbal Barkat seeking to halt auction of the PML-N supremo Nawaz Sharif’s seized properties.
The court had earlier reserved its verdict after hearing arguments of the NAB prosecutor and the applicants’ lawyers. Last month, the former premier’s confiscated agricultural land in Sheikhupura district went under the hammer.
