Panama Leaks case: Hussain Nawaz appears before JIT

In Pakistan, Hussain Nawaz, the elder son of Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif appeared again before the joint investigation team (JIT) probing the Panama Papers case. <br/><br/>Yesterday Hussain Nawaz was grilled by the JIT members for almost five hours at the National Judicial Academy. The premier's son had refused to answer any question put forth by the JIT, saying that the JIT's status was 'sub judice' as he had already filed a petition before the apex court regarding two of its constituents.<br/><br/>On Monday, the apex court turned down Hussain's objections against two of the JIT members. He, through his council, had argued that the two called him a liar during the interrogations. He had also asked the country's top court to disassociate the two from the JIT.
