LAHORE: Punjab Law Minister Rana Sanaullah says the Joint Investigation Team`s (JIT) findings will be `just an investigation report` and the PTI will cry after comprehending the Supreme Court`s judgment in the Panama case.

`The PTI is gloating over the apex court`s verdict in the Panama case believing that the JIT findings can create problems for PM Nawaz Sharif. Let me tell Imran Khan that the JIT report will be nothing more than an investigation report. It will not be a verdict or reference against anyone.

Talking to Dawn, he advised the PTI to `wait for the 2018 elections instead of makinganother anti-Nawaz plan.

He said there was no plan for Maryam Nawaz to contest on a NA seat in a Lahore by-poll. `At present, Maryam Bibi is assisting her father in politics and whenever Mian Sahib decides to send her to the National Assembly she will contest the election. There is no such plan right now and she may contest the 2018 election,` he said. He said her (Maryam`s) name was not in the Panama verdict.

Meanwhile, PTI leader Begum Mehnaz Rafi has questioned as why Maryam`s name was not in the verdict despite revelation that she was trustee of the family flats in London.

`I wonder how this JIT will be able to carry out a thorough probe against the premier and his children. It appears the JIT has been made to hush up the matter,` she said.-Staff Reporter
