Broadsheet on Nawaz Sharif

After the Panama leaks, the Pakistan government launched an investigation for Nawaz’s assets and found out about his two luxury apartments in London and a steel mill in Saudi Arabia causing him to be toppled in July 2017.

Recently, Broadsheet CEO Kaveh Moussavi claimed that Sharif’s representative approached him in 2012 and offered him a bribe of $25 million to drop the investigation against him.
Imran Khan’s comments on the controversy
PM Imran Khan addressed the issue via Twitter and mentioned that the firm had only discovered the “tip of the iceberg”. He also mentioned that he predicted this long ago in his “24-year fight against corruption which is the biggest threat to the country’s progress”
Panama Papers exposed our ruling elites corruption & money laundering earlier. Now Broadsheet revelations have again exposed the massive scale of our ruling elites corruption & money laundering. These elites cannot hide behind "victimisation" card on these int revelations.

What do these revelations expose repeatedly? 1. Exactly what I have been saying in my 24-yr fight against corruption which is the biggest threat to Pak's progress. 2. These elites come to power & plunder the country.

Sharif’s response
Nawaz’s son, Hussain Nawaz rejected the claims, saying that Moussavi has no relatives of the name Anjum Dar, the alleged representative of Sharif who approached CEO Broadsheet. He also emphasized that Moussavi should have investigated the person before making such claims and called him a ‘poor investigator’ in this manner.
