Sharif family on Tuesday termed Musharraf’s treason case the reason behind disqualification of Nawaz Sharif on July 28. They said that initiation of a treason case against former dictator retired Gen Pervez Musharraf by the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz government was the reason behind his ouster.

According to a report by Dawn News, Nawaz Sharif and his daughter Maryam Nawaz continued their tirade against the judiciary for what they described as an “unjust” decision against the former and vowed to struggle for the restoration of “justice and respect of ballot”.

Sharif also asked if any court would dare bring Musharraf to justice. “Will we see any court hold Musharraf accountable for his crimes?” he asked and responded to his own question, saying: “I am hopeful one day this will happen.”

He added, “We got a treason case registered against Musharraf for abrogating the Constitution. But his case is still pending and a verdict came in my case in haste.”
