Talking to anchor Javed Chaudhry in an interview with Express News, Sharif said that money was transferred overnight into Swiss banks.
“The nation should get its money back.”
Commenting on the government’s stance on writing letters to Swiss authorities to reopen graft cases against Zardari, Sharif said: “Letters should have been written as soon as the Supreme Court’s orders were released. The court has been reiterating it, but they [government] are making excuses and violating the orders.”
Sharif also criticised the ruling Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP), saying that there were differing statements within the party regarding the president’s immunity. “Some say he has immunity, some say he doesn’t.”
He also lambasted Barrister Aitzaz Ahsan who represented Prime Minister Yousaf Raza Gilani during his contempt of court hearing today and said: “He [Ahsan] had played his role in freeing the judiciary and fulfilled his national duty, but today he has changed his statement.”

@blithe: Don't be disgusted at Aitzaz's U-turn because he did not take a U-turn at all. He was with the constitution earlier and he is with the constitution today. So please be happy with him and stay with Aitzaz and so stay with the constitution.
Equally disgusted at Aitzaz's u-turn!
Mr. Sharif! how about you? You fled with 40 suitcases after signing the NRO with Musharraf, leaving behind your comrades languishing in jail. Now we know you have billions of dollars worth of business interests in UK.
@hameediK: "die-hard supporter" - come on, grow up.
You ought to say MQM and ANP and Q League are die-hard supporters.
Zardari has immunity, but not you? Then why not start it from you? Why judiciary is so lenient towards nawaz sharif?
People are worried about your money overseas too... Mr. Shareef. Show heart... set an example!
Politics and flip flopping go hand in hand. Political opinion is also a marriage of convenience, it depends on the audience and selfish interests.
for years you have been die hard supporter/saviour of this regime - now its too late to listen your music, why this u=turn.
nb)kindly notify me 'comments' - in case "approved)!
Beautifully expressed story
I wish i become the President of Pakistan.will break all the records of corruption.
“Some say he has immunity, some say he doesn’t.” and You (NS) has said on record that He has immunity.... You both are two sides of the same coin
“The nation should get its money back.”....Lets Strat Charity From Home Mian Sahab?? Shall we?
