In a major relief to Nawaz Sharif ahead of the 2024 elections, the Islamabad High Court (IHC) on Wednesday acquitted former prime minister Nawaz Sharif in the Avenfield reference.
A two-member Islamabad High Court bench comprising Chief Justice Aamer Farooq and Justice Miangul Hassan Aurangzeb announced the verdict after hearing the appeal filed by Nawaz Sharif against his conviction in the Avenfield corruption case in which he was sentenced to 10 years in jail in 2018.
Meanwhile, the NAB decided to withdraw its appeal in the Flagship case due to which his acquittal by the trial court was restored by the high court.
As reported, Nawaz Sharif’s appeal against the sentence in the Al-Azizia reference will be heard later.
Speaking to reporters after the hearing, the PML-N supremo Nawaz Sharif said: “I thank God as I had left the entire matter on him. God has made us victorious today.”
Following the verdict, in a post on X (formerly Twitter), Maryam Nawaz said today’s verdict showed how God vindicated those who put their unwavering trust in him.
