How Kashmiri Tweeple reacted to Pakistan PM Sharif’s ouster after the Panama verdict

Srinagar: A five judge bench of the Supreme Court of Pakistan on Friday unanimously disqualified the Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif from holding his office in the Panama Papers case, the Dawn reported.

Supreme Court Justice Asif Saeed Khosa initiated announcing the court’s verdict on the Panama Papers case shortly after 12:00pm.

Nawaz Sharif, known as the ‘Lion of Punjab’, became the Prime Minister in the politically unstable Pakistan for a record three times, but every time he was forced to quit in the middle of his term – first by the presidency, then the military and now the judiciary.

Here is how Kashmiris reacted to the Panama verdict:
