LAHORE: Hasan and Hussain Nawaz, sons of Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) supremo Nawaz Sharif, have arrived in Lahore following the stay of their arrest warrants by an accountability court.
According to sources, Nawaz welcomed his sons at the Jati Umrah mansion upon their arrival.
Last Monday, an accountability court postponed the arrest orders for Hasan and Hussain in the Al-Azizia, Flagship, and Avenfield cases.
Nasir Javed Rana, a judge of the accountability court, revealed the ruling in a verdict reserved earlier today. The warrants have been delayed until March 14, according to the judgment.
The warrants for the brothers were issued seven years ago, when the court labeled them absconders.
Earlier, their lawyer, Qazi Misbah, filed a plea seeking suspension of the warrants.Sardar Muzaffar, Usman Masood, and Sohail Arif, prosecutors of the National Accountability Bureau (NAB), also appeared in court.
Misbah revealed the development during the hearing of the Toshakhana reference filed against Nawaz, Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) Co-Chairman Asif Ali Zardari, and former Prime Minister Yusuf Raza Gilani, in which the politicians are accused of keeping various vehicles in violation of Toshakhana rules.
