ISLAMABAD: Deposed former prime minister Nawaz Sharif’s lawyer on Friday submitted new documents to the accountability court which is due to announce its verdict in references filed against him on Dec 24.
Accountability Judge Arshad Malik on Dec 19 reserved his verdict in the remaining references against the PML-N supermo and his family and will announce it on Monday (Dec 24).
A National Accountability Bureau (NAB) prosecutor, objecting to the submission of new documents, said the defence counsel has brought the plea seeking permission to submit the documents at this juncture when the court had already reserved its verdict in the cases.
He said all witnesses had recorded their depositions while the defence counsel had also put forward his final arguments.
“When the cases have been fixed for the pronouncement of the judgment, they [Sharif’s legal team] have brought new documents,” he said and questioned why did they fail to submit the same in the past one year and three months’ period.
The accountability judge remarked that it would have been easier for him to announce a verdict in one reference today while in the other after a week following the submission of the documents by the defence counsel.
