Islamabad, October 19 (IANS) A court on Thursday indicted ousted Pakistan Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif, his daughter Maryam Nawaz and his son-in-law Captain Mohammad Safdar in a corruption reference pertaining to the London properties owned by the family.
The four references against the Sharif family related to their Avenfield properties in London, the Azizia Steel Mills as well as another 16 offshore companies.
