An associate of Shehbaz Sharif’s counsel Amjad Pervaiz pleaded with the court to adjourn the matter as his senior was not available. He also requested the court to adjourn the matter for two weeks in view of the next National Assembly session as Shehbaz Sharif wanted to participate in it. The Federal Investigation Agency’s investigation officer submitted a report before the court and stated that efforts were being made to complete the record.
At this, the court directed the investigation officer to complete investigations and adjourned further hearing till Sept 4. The court also extended the interim bail of Shehbaz Sharif and Hamza Shehbaz till the next date of hearing.
