PML-N Senior Vice President Maryam Nawaz has claimed that former chief justice of Pakistan (CJP) Asif Saeed Khosa had sought an extension from her father and PML-N supremo Nawaz Sharif.

Maryam made the claim in an exclusive interview with a private TV channel, which was air on Thursday.

In the interview, Maryam — who has railed against Khosa in the past for being part of a “conspiracy” against Nawaz — said: “Place your hand on the Quran and tell [the world] was your extension as the chief justice not being talked about?

“If Nawaz Sharif sahab had agreed, and he (Khosa) would have gotten an extension, then Umar Ata Bandial would not be the [current] chief justice.”

She said there were even talks of increasing the retirement age of Supreme Court judges, which she claimed was for Justice (retd) Khosa’s benefit.

Maryam said that a delegation had conveyed the then chief justice’s message to Nawaz, who was in jail at the time, adding that the PML-N supremo had refused to grant an extension.

It is pertinent to mention that in 2017, ex-CJP Khosa headed a SC bench which had disqualified Nawaz in the Panama Papers case.

During the interview, Maryam also spoke about former Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) director general (DG) retired Lt-Gen Faiz Hamid and said that he had “confessed” to his crime.
