Pak SC says single-member commission to probe Panama leaks

Pakistan's Supreme Court today said, a single-member commission will probe allegations made against Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif and his family in the Panama Papers case. <br/><br/>The Court expressed strong displeasure at the failure of Sharif's children to respond to the charges. A five-member bench hearing five identical petitions against Sharif and his family for having illegal assets abroad had directed them on Monday to submit written response.<br/><br/>Sharif's Counsel today submitted his response in court along with that of his son-in-law Muhammad Safdar. But his daughter Maryam and son Hussain and Hasan failed to comply. The Prime Minister denied holding any offshore companies and maintained that he is a regular taxpayer. The next hearing will be held on Monday.
