Justice Asif Saeed Khosa remarked, “Are you trying to say he hid the London flats on purpose?”

In the last hearing, the Prime Minister’s counsel completed his arguments.

Makhdoom Ali Khan also submitted a list of properties purchased in Maryam Nawaz’s name in the court. The judges asked Makhdoom whether the PM had bought land in his daughter’s name, to which the counsel replied that he did indeed, and the land was later transferred to Maryam Nawaz when she paid its price.
