The Sharif family has been facing three corruption references under the Supreme Court orders in Panama Papers case.

Sharif, who was removed from office after the Panama Papers case verdict last July, has been indicted in the three references related to Azizia Steel Mills, Avenfield Apartments and offshore companies.

While Sharif continues to attend the hearing of corruption references conducted by an Accountability Court, the NAB has also moved two more supplementary references against him.
