The court also set aside the sentences awarded to Maryam and Safdar by the accountability court.
On July 6, a few weeks before the elections in 2018, the accountability judge of Islamabad, who was working under the supervision of an apex court judge, convicted the Sharif family in the Avenfield properties reference. PML-N Quaid and former prime minister Nawaz Sharif was handed 10 years as jail time for owning assets beyond known income and one year for not cooperating with the National Accountability Bureau . Meanwhile, Maryam was given seven years for abetment after she was found “instrumental in concealment of the properties of her father” and one year for non-cooperation with the bureau.
Captain Safdar was given one year jail time — for not cooperating with NAB, and aiding and abetting Nawaz and Maryam.
