LONDON: Maryam Nawaz, the daughter of former prime minister Nawaz Sharif, has said that she would appear before NAB court on Oct 9 to test the judicial system.

Speaking to media before leaving for airport at her Park Lane residence here on Sunday, she said that she along with her husband Capt (retd) Safdar was returning home in respect for Constitution.

Maryam had been staying in London to look after her ailing mother Begum Kulsoom Nawaz.

They have been facing charges in a reference related to Sharif family’s reported properties in London.

Kulsoom Nawaz has been under treatment for cancer in London.

Earlier this month, a NAB court had issued non-bailable arrest warrants for Hasan, Hussain and their brother-in-law retired Capt Mohammad Safdar for failing to appear before it.

The judge, however, did not issue non-bailable warrants for Maryam but repeated the bailable arrest warrants after the counsel for Nawaz Sharif assured the court that she and her spouse would join the proceedings on the next date of hearing set for Oct 9.
