Bad weather prevents Sharif, daughter from attending Avenfield hearing

Former prime minister of Pakistan Nawaz Sharif and his daughter Maryam Nawaz pinned the blame on bad weather for their failure to attend the proceedings of the Avenfield properties case against them.

According to ARY News, as Judge Muhammad Bashir commenced proceedings, the Pakistan Muslim League (Nawaz) supremo’s lawyer informed the court that they couldn’t make it to Islamabad from Lahore owing to rough skies.
