Pakistani authorities blacklist Nawaz Sharif's sons, block passports; court issues non-bailable arrest warrants against them

Islamabad: Pakistan’s deposed prime minister Nawaz Sharif’s sons Hassan and Hussain have been placed on the blacklist by the authorities, barring them from travelling on their Pakistani passports, media reports said on Wednesday.

AP[/caption] Sharif’s sons, who live in London, were declared as absconders by a court after they failed to appear in any of the three corruption cases lodged against them along with their father after a Supreme Court decision in July 2017. The anti-corruption body National Accountability Bureau (NAB) has requested for the names of Hassan and Hussain to be placed on the Exit Control List on which the caretaker cabinet has not passed a decision, Geo news reported. The NAB made another request to the Immigration and Passport Directorate after which their passports were blocked and names placed on the blacklist, the report said. Last week, the Federal Investigation Agency approached Interpol seeking issuance of Red Corner Notices against Hassan and Hussain. An accountability court has issued warrants in the Avenfield Reference case and issued orders to immediately produce Sharif’s sons before the court. The court also issued non-bailable perpetual arrest warrants against them. In July, the court sentenced former prime minister Sharif to 10 years in prison, his daughter Maryam to seven and son-in-law Captain (retired) Safdar to one-year in prison. The court also imposed a fine of eight million pounds on Sharif and two million pounds on Maryam. Sharif was disqualified as prime minister in July 2017 by the Supreme Court following a challenge to his office by cricketer-turned-politician Imran Khan on the basis of publication of the Panama Papers, which alleged that the Sharif family stashed away assets in London through offshore companies Nescoll and Nelson. The companies are owned by Hussain. Assets in question are four expensive flats in London worth over 200 million pounds. Hussain admitted ownership of the flats but denied that they were purchased through corruption money.
