ISLAMABAD: National Accountability Bureau (NAB) key witness Wajid Zia Tuesday submitted documents gathered by the Panamagate joint investigation team (JIT) as evidence in the Flagship Investments corruption reference against former prime minister Nawaz Sharif, a private TV channel reported.
Panamagate JIT head Wajid Zia appeared before the accountability court to continue recording his testimony in the case. He submitted the financial statements of Flagship Investments dating from 2002 to 2016. He also presented letters from Qatari royal Hamad Bin Jassim Bin Jaber Al-Thani which, he claimed, were sent to the JIT by Director of the Foreign Secretary’s Office Afaq Ahmed. The letter also held the Qatari prince’s seal.
Nawaz Sharif’s counsel Khawaja Haris objected to the submission of the letter and said that Afaq Ahmed had appeared before the court but did not submit the letter.
During the hearing, Judge Arshad Malik said that Zia should make a list of the documents that he wished to submit in court as evidence and give it to Haris in a portable hard drive so that he could note his objections and submit them in the court.
Nawaz Sharif, who appeared before court for the hearing, was allowed to leave midway through the hearing.
