In a strange turn of events, Leader of the Opposition in the National Assembly Shahbaz Sharif has yet to be released by jail authorities on bail, despite having been cleared for bail by the court.
His release, it emerged on Friday, has been delayed owing to the absence of a signature by one of the judges of the two-member bench that heard the proceedings in relation to a case filed by the National Accountability Bureau in which Shahbaz Sharif has been accused of laundering money owning assets beyond known sources of income.
