Islamabad: An accountability court on Thursday issued bailable warrants against ousted Pakistan Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif in cases relating to two of his properties, the media reported.
The Islamabad-based court wrapped up the first hearing in the Sharif family's London flats case after grilling the former leader's guranteer about his absence from the hearing, reports Dawn news.
The bailable warrants were issued for the Flagship Investment case and the Al-Azizia Steel Mills and Hill Metal Establishment case.
Meanwhile, the hearing on the Avenfield flats in London was adjourned until November 3.
The court had indicted Nawaz Sharif, his daughter Maryam Nawaz and her husband Captain Mohammad Safdar on October 19 in connection with a case pertaining to the Avenfield flats filed against them by the National Accountability Bureau (NAB).
The former Prime Minister was separately indicted in the Al-Azizia Steel Mills and Hill Metal Establishment cases.
All three accused pleaded not guilty to the charges, Dawn news reported.
