LHC heard Shehbaz Sharif's bail plea
LAHORE (Dunya News) – Lahore High Court (LHC) on Tuesday has extended Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) President and Opposition Leader in National Assembly (NA) Shehbaz Sharif’s interim bail in money laundering case till September 28.
According to details, a two-member bench of LHC heard the plea, during which Shehbaz Sharif’s lawyer continued his arguments.
Previously, LHC had extended interim bail of Shehbaz Sharif till September 24 in money laundering case. The local administration also ensured stringent security arrangements to avoid any untoward incident.
Earlier, addressing a press conference, PML-N President Mian Shehbaz Sharif has said that Imran Khan was eager to see him behind bars and it won’t matter if he has to go to jail again, he will keep raising his voice.
“My companions will expose this Niazi even if I am detained,” said Shehbaz Sharif.
On June 1, Shehbaz Sharif had filed a bail plea in LHC to avoid arrest in assets beyond means and money laundering cases. The opposition leader, in his plea, took the stance that NAB might arrest him in a pending inquiry.
The anti-corruption watchdog had prepared the case with malicious intentions as he has been declaring his assets regularly, Shehbaz stated.
