Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Minute: On Pakistan's banned prime minister

Nawaz Sharif has resigned as Pakistan's prime minister, after the Supreme Court barred him from public office. That ruling followed a probe into his family’s wealth, after the release of the Panama Papers revealed Mr Sharif’s children owned offshore companies and assets which were not declared on his family’s wealth statement. The trail leads from the British Virgin Islands to luxury apartments in London's Mayfair.
