Nawaz Sharif provides a statement in the Toshakhana case, as conveyed by NAB to the court.
The leader of PMLN, Nawaz Sharif, has given his statement in the Toshakhana reference, as communicated by the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) to the Lahore accountability court on Thursday.
Accusations in the Toshakhana case involve Nawaz Sharif, former president Asif Ali Zardari, and ex-prime minister Yousuf Raza Gilani, who are alleged to have received luxury vehicles from the Toshakhana (gifts repository).
Judge Muhammad Bashir presided over the proceedings, with key figures such as Nawaz Sharif's lawyer Qazi Misbah, Arshad Tabriz, NAB prosecutor Irfan Bhola, and Sohail Arif present.
The court was informed by the prosecutor that Nawaz Sharif had submitted his response, and additional time would be required for further investigation.
The defense counsel highlighted that a questionnaire from 2019, delayed due to Nawaz's health, has now been addressed.
Acknowledging the challenges, the court inquired about NAB's plan, and the prosecutor outlined a comprehensive examination of the statement before determining the next steps.
Subsequently, the Toshakhana case hearing was adjourned, with the next session scheduled for December 20.
