The acquittal of Maryam Nawaz in the Avenfield case, according to Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, is a significant rebuke to the political persecution of the Sharif family.
After the Islamabad High Court overturned the convictions in the Avenfield reference, PM Shehbaz met with PML-N Vice President Maryam Nawaz, according to Minister for Information and Broadcasting Marriyum Aurangzeb on Thursday.
She announced on Twitter that Maryam Nawaz and Captain Safdar had been found not guilty.

“I congratulate my leader, Nawaz Sharif, on the acquittal of Maryam Nawaz,” Shehbaz Sharif said. “I hope that justice will prevail in the case against Nawaz Sharif following the evidence of judge Arshad Malik.”
As Maryam Nawaz and her husband, Captain (ret.) Safdar, had their convictions overturned, PM Shehbaz also extended his appreciation to Allah.
The edifice of lies, slander & character assassination has come crumbling down today. Maryam Nawaz's acquittal in the Avenfield Reference is a slap in the face of so-called accountability system that was employed to target Sharif family. My congratulations to Maryam Beti & Safdar
