FAISALABAD: Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz Leader Tallal Chaudhary remarked that the ?mother of all cases? Hudaibiya has finished now.

While addressing media in Faisalabad on Saturday, Tallal remarked that earlier a bench had said that Hudaibiya Papers Mills cannot continue. ?Yesterday, three more judges ruled that Hudaibiya case should not be continued.?

All the cases registered against former prime minister Nawaz Sharif on the basis of Hudaibiya case have ended now, he remarked.

On Friday, a three-member Supreme Court bench dismissed National Accountability Bureau (NAB)'s appeal to reopen the Rs1.2 billion Hudaibiya Paper Mills case. The bench was headed by Justice Mushir Alam and comprised Justices Qazi Faez Isa and Mazhar Alam Miankhel.

The Hudaibiya Paper Mills case, involving money laundering charges against the Sharif family, was initiated by NAB in 2000 but quashed by the Lahore High Court (LHC) in 2014. 

On the disqualification of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf?s Jahangir Tareen, Tallal remarked that ?Tareen has been disqualified because he didn?t declare his offshore companies.?

Reiterating PML-N's earlier stance, he added: ?nation will decide who should be disqualified.? 

Lashing out at political opponent Imran Khan, Tallal remarked that "Imran is just a mere puppet."
