An accountability court on Tuesday summoned witnesses to record their statements in the Ramzan Sugar Mills case on November 26.

Opposition Leader in Punjab Assembly, Hamza Shahbaz appeared before the court and marked his attendance, while his father, President Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz, Shehbaz Sharif was granted exemption from court’s appearance.

The court after summoning the witnesses in the case, adjourned the further hearing of the case until November 26.

On November 11, last year, an accountability court had indicted Shehbaz, his son Hamza, daughter and other family members in a money-laundering reference filed by the National Accountability Bureau (NAB). Shehbaz Sharif daughter Javeria Ali along with seven other nominated accused appeared in court.
