Pakistani anti-corruption court indicts ousted PM Sharif, daughter

A Pakistani anti-graft court today indicted ousted Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif and his daughter for allegations linked to ownership of posh London flats. <br/><br/>Sharif, his daughter Maryam, as well as her husband Muhammad Safdar, had all been indicted. <br/><br/>They all pleaded not guilty. Maryam and Safdar were present in court, but Sharif sent a representative while he tends to his ailing wife in Britain. <br/><br/>Sharif was disqualified by the Supreme Court in July for not declaring a source of income that he disputes receiving. Pakistan's top court also ordered a wide-ranging investigation by the National Accountability Bureau and trial of Sharif family members.
