The matter stirred controversy when the JIT found “significant” disparities in Sharif family’s income and actual wealth but the most interesting evidence from the investigation became the butt of jokes on social media.
According to the JIT report, the documents submitted by the prime minister’s daughter, Maryam Nawaz, were found to be forged. The documents dating back to 2006 were printed in the font ‘Calibri’ which according to the JIT report was not even developed until the year 2007.
While political rivals and commentators have raised serious concerns over the said ‘forgery’, the revelation managed to gain the status of a running joke on social networking websites, including Facebook and Twitter, where Opposition supporters managed to use the incident to mock the ruling Sharif family.
