ISLAMABAD: Former Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif on Wednesday used Supreme Court judge's Tuesday remarks about Panama Papers case to corroborate his claim that the judgement that led to his disqualification from the office was flawed.
Referring to Justice Qazi Faiz Isa's comments that the Panama Papers case involved Sharif family's London flats but the former premeir was disqualified for holding the Iqama, he said the remarks were not ordinary.
"Voices are now being raised from inside the Suprme Court," he said while talking to media outside the accountability court where he appeared in connection with the hearing of corruption references filed against him by the National Accountability Bureau under Supreme Court orders in Panama Papers case.
"I am the person who respects institutions, I launched long march for the judiciary, but the decision that came was not right in the eyes of the nation.
"How could I have accepted the decision knowing that I was disqualified after consulting Black Law dictionary for not taking salary from my son", he said adding that there was no provision in the Pakistani law that could have become basis for his disqualification.
He said even Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf chairman Imran Khan had called the decision in Panama case weak.
