ISLAMABAD: The Islamabad High Court (IHC) on Wednesday adjourned hearing of three petitions, challenging the decision of Accountability Court (AC) regarding the confiscation and auction of the property owned by former prime minister Muhammad Nawaz Sharif.
Due to absence of IHC Chief Justice Athar Minallah the hearing of the case was adjourned without proceedings. The petitioners prayed the court to annul the orders of Accountability Court for confiscation of property.
It may be mentioned here that an Accountability Court had ordered to confiscate the property due to continuous absence of Nawaz Sharif in Toshakhana reference. Three citizens had challenged the decision in IHC.
