This happened so long ago that in that time Nawaz Sharif was exposed, charged, dq'd from prime minister, arrested, granted health leave, absconded for several years, waited for new PM to get toppled, got his panama charges repealed, returned to Pakistan, and helped get his brother elected in fraudulent elections.

All while probably continuing to launder his money exactly the same.

The fact that this has taken so long doesn't bother me, it's the fact that it resulted in this pathetic trial where no one with any actual money or power is being charged.

I can understand taking years with a case this complicated, but this result is inexcusable.

Lol, first time seeing the 1% do illegal things?

They get away with raping children. Why would you think this would bring them down?
