KARACHI: Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) leader Talal Chaudhry, speaking with regard to Panama Leaks case, has said that it is not possible to punish the prime minister on the basis of his family.
Speaking on Geo News' program 'Aaj Shahzeb Khanzada Kay Sath', Talal said the grandson in Sharif family has accounted for his grandfather and even if there occurred a mistake on someone's part, then the law does not state that Nawaz Sharif is to be punished for that.
"The way Sharif family has accounted for there is no example of it. And no one is held accountable for what his relatives did, that too when the latter is no longer alive," he maintained.
The PML-N leader, however, said that if there was some tax evasion then the burden of proof lies on PM Nawaz Sharif. He reiterated that audio, video recording of JIT proceedings should be made public.
Asked about opening of volume 10 of the JIT report, he said that his party has requested in writing to open it.
