Every contradiction will not only be contested but decimated in SC. NOT a penny of public exchequer involved."<br /><br />Maryam, 43, is being groomed to succeed her father and the charges may seriously impede her ambitions.<br />However, her fate is closely tied with that of her father who along with the two sons and daughter may face formal corruption case.<br /><br />Last year, the Panama Papers revealed that three of Prime Minister Sharif's children owned offshore companies and assets not shown on his family's wealth statement. The assets in question include four expensive flats in Park Lane, London.<br /><br />The JIT was set up in May by the Supreme Court with the mandate to probe the Sharif family for allegedly failing to provide the trail of money used to buy properties in London in 1990s.</p>
