A banking court on Saturday issued arrest warrants of Nawaz Sharif’s cousins in the case related to defaulting on bank loans worth Rs700 million. The court ordered authorities to produce the accused including Shahid Shafi, Tariq Shafi, Javed Shafi, Ali Pervaiz and Ibrahim Tariq in the next hearing to be held on November 27. The arrest warrant was issued by the court over their continuous absence in the hearings.
Earlier on November 6, the banking court had summoned cousins of former prime minister Nawaz Sharif on November 20 for indicting them, however, they did not show up.
