The case will be pursued in an accountability court. 

Earlier, NAB Chairman Qamar Zaman Chaudhry chaired a meeting to chart how to proceed with the Supreme Court's orders in the Panama Papers case.

After the Supreme Court announced the disqualification of Nawaz Sharif as Prime Minister on July 28, NAB was ordered to file several references against Nawaz Sharif, his children Hussain, Hasan and Maryam, son-in-law parliament member Safdar and Dar.
