Pakistani Authorities Raid ex-Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif’s Party Office Amid Judge’s Video Scandal
New Delhi (Sputnik): The Imran Khan government recently appointed Wazid Zia as the new chief of the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA). Zia was one of the main witnesses against Nawaz Sharif and his family members in the Panama Papers case. The opposition PML(N) has accused Khan of bringing Zia to the FIA to act against the family in false cases.
Pakistan’s top investigative body - the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) - on Thursday raided the head office of the country’s main opposition party the Pakistan Muslim League (Nawaz) or, PML(N), in Lahore.
Dozens of officers of the investigative body participated in the raid at the PML-N’s secretariat located in Model Town of Lahore.
The raid comes days after the FIA summoned the party’s three main leaders in a video scandal related to accountability court Judge Arshad Malik, who convicted former Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif in the Al-Azizia Mills corruption case.
