Rejection of bail plea: Nawaz moves SC against IHC decision
ISLAMABAD: Former prime minister Muhammad Nawaz Sharif Friday requested the Supreme Court to set aside the Islamabad High Court (IHC) judgment rejecting his bail plea in Al-Azizia corruption reference. Nawaz filed an application with the apex court through his counsel Khawaja Haris under
Article 185(3) of the Constitution for leave to appeal against the IHC’s February 25 judgment in the reference.
An Islamabad High Court bench, comprising Justice Aamer Farooq and Justice Mohsin Akhtar Kayani, had dismissed Nawaz’s petition seeking bail and suspension of his seven-year sentence on medical grounds.
The Accountability Court-II sentenced Nawaz to seven years in prison and Rs1.5 billion and US$25 million fine in the corruption reference on December 24, 2018.
He made the NAB chairman, Judge Accountability Court-II Arshad Malik as well as the Kot Lakhpat Jail, Lahore superintendent as respondents.
