The Court said that the questions as to how did Gulf Steel Mill come into being; what led to its sale; what happened to its liabilities; where did its sale proceeds end up; how did they reach Jeddah, Qatar and the U.K. And how Nawaz Sharif\u2019s children were in possession of properties in their tender ages were important questions to be looked into. It was said that in normal circumstances, such exercise could be conducted by the NAB but when its Chairman appears to be indifferent and even unwilling to perform his part, it was important that an impartial Joint Investigation Team investigated the matter.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Court asked the Election Commission of Pakistan to issue a notification disqualifying PM Nawaz Sharif with immediate effect.
