摘要：The Advocate General of Punjab (AGP) during Shahbaz Sharif’s previous tenure as Chief Minister (CM), it is no surprise that Khawaja Haris is now defending former PM Nawaz Sharif and his family in the Panama Gate case. He is also the lead lawyer in references filed by National Accountability Bureau (NAB) for the Avenfield properties, Al-Azizia Steel Mills, Hill Metal Establishment and other offshore companies including Flagship Investment Limited. Rejecting his plea for six weeks to complete the trial, Chief Justice (CJ) Mian Saqib Nisar ordered the NAB court on June 10, 2018 to wind up hearings of all three corruption references in a month. Since the SC had “dictated deciding the case in a month”, on June 11 Haris suddenly excused himself from representing the Nawaz Sharif family on the grounds that it was not possible for him to work when the court planned hearing cases on Saturdays and Sundays. Remember Melina Mercouri as “Phaedrar” singing “Never on a Sunday”?..
