LHC orders to release Shehbaz Sharif on bail
LAHORE, (DNA) – The Lahore High Court (LHC) has on Thursday ordered to release Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PMLN) President and Opposition Leader Shehbaz Sharif after approving his bail plea.
The bail has been granted against two surety bonds worth one million each. Shehbaz Sharif had filed bail petition in Ramzan Sugar Mills and Ashiana Housing Scheme cases.
A two-member bench headed by Justice Malik Shehzad Ahmed heard the plea. The National Accountability Bureau (NAB) opposed Shehbaz’s petition.
The court said in its remarks that the NAB failed to prove the allegations leveled against the PMLN president. Shehbaz Sharif never remained the chief executive of Ramzan Sugar Mills, LHC said.
Shehbaz Sharif’s response:
While commenting on the verdict, Shehbaz Sharif said the truth prevailed once again and thanked God. We are appearing before courts and will continue to do so, he vowed. He once again claimed to leave politics if corruption is proved against him.
The PMLN president added that he had already said the cases are based on lies, and demanded that accountability of all should be held.
