A 12-member delegation of Qatari royals, including Prince Hamad Bin Jassim, have arrived in Lahore on Saturday in the wake of the counsel for the premier’s sons presenting a letter from Prince Jassim before the Supreme Court pertaining to the Panamagate probe. Sources confirm that the delegation was received by a provincial minister, Rana Mashhood Ahmed Khan, and PM Sharif’s younger son, Hasan Nawaz, and taken to the Sharif’s Jati Umra residence.

According to a letter presented in court during the Panamgate probe proceedings on November 14, Mian Muhammad Sharif (Nawaz Sharif’s father) invested 12 million dirhams in the Al Thani company in 1980 and that company belonged to the Qatari prince’s father at the time. The letter claims that “in the year 2006, the accounts in relation to the above investment were settled between Hussain Nawaz Sharif and Al Thani family, who then delivered the bearer shares of the companies to a representative of Hussain Nawaz Sharif.”

Chiarman of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), Imran Khan, took a swipe at PM Nawaz Sharif on Thursday and said that not even a conversation with US President-elect Donald Trump could ‘save’ the premier from the Panamagate probe. In his tweet, Khan mentioned that “Good news is Trump spoke to Nawaz Sharif. Bad news for NS is this won’t save him from Panama scandal – not even if a Trump letter arrived!” On November 15, Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif and his daughter Maryam Nawaz submitted ‘documentary evidence’ on the legitimacy of their assets before the top court, claiming a Qatari prince had paid for their London apartment.
