Court orders to freeze shares of ousted PM Nawaz sons Hassan, Hussain

Islamabad (Staff Report): The accountability court on Tuesday ordered to freeze shares of former prime minister Nawaz Sharif’s sons Hassan and Hussain Nawaz’s in six companies.

While hearing a case against deposed prime minister’s sons, the court ordered Securities & Exchange Commission of Pakistan (SECP) to freeze Hassan and Hussain’s shares in six companies.

The case was adjourned till November 14.

Non-bailable warrants of arrest were issued for Hassan and Hussain earlier this month for failing to appear before the court.

Last month, NAB filed four corruption references against the Sharif family and Finance Minister Ishaq Dar with the accountability court in light of the July 28 judgement of the Supreme Court in the Panamagate case.
