LAHORE: An accountability court on Tuesday recorded the statement of another prosecution witness in Ramzan Sugar Mills reference against Leader of Opposition in the National Assembly Shehbaz Sharif and his son Leader of Opposition in Punjab Assembly Hamza Shehbaz. Earlier, Mr Shehbaz requested the court to delay the testimony of the prosecution witness as his lead counsel Amjad Pervaiz was not available due to an appearance before the Lahore High Court. Presiding Judge Amjad Nazir Chaudhry turned down the request, saying the court was recording the statement of the witness only and his cross examination would be conducted in the presence of the defence counsel. The judge observed that only the suspect was required to be present during the statement of the witness.
