The Supreme Court on Friday disqualified Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif from holding public office in a landmark decision on the Panama Papers case.

This is the third time the prime minister has been unable to complete his term in the chief executive's office. It is unclear at the moment who will be appointed to take over the post till the next general elections, which are scheduled for 2018.

The Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) has been asked to de-notify the prime minister from his National Assembly seat to fulfill the technicalities of implementing the order. The Supreme Court said the ECP should de-seat the PM for not disclosing his role in the Dubai-based Capital FZE company in his nomination papers, saying that this meant he was not 'honest' and 'truthful'.

巴基斯坦最高法院28日宣布，取消总理谢里夫的任职资格。

巴基斯坦最高法院今天审理总理谢里夫(Nawaz Sharif)贪腐案，此前，路透社报道称，在一份调查报告质疑谢里夫家族财产来源后，谢里夫驳斥了这份谴责性报告，并进行“权位保卫战”。

最高法院成立的联合调查小组在报告中称，谢里夫家族来自商业的所得不足以解释其家族财富之多。包括他的继承人、女儿玛莉昂(Maryam Sharif)在内的子女，也被指控签署伪造文件，掩盖伦敦豪华公寓的所有权。
