ISLAMABAD: Former Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) senator Nehal Hashmi?s controversial video, in which he allegedly threatened the Panama case?s Joint Investigation Team members and judiciary, has been submitted in the Supreme Court.

The case pertaining to a contempt of court notice will be heard in the Supreme Court today.

On May 31, a video had surfaced of Hashmi's speech to workers in which he threatened the prime minister's unidentified 'enemies'.

He had remarked, ?You will not be spared; you are in service now but remember you will retire tomorrow.?

Later, the prime minister had suspended Hashmi?s party membership and directed him to tender his resignation from the Senate.

The controversy also moved the Chief Justice of Pakistan Justice Saqib Nisar to take a suo motu notice of Hashmi's outburst.

On June 1, Hashmi was served a contempt notice by a Supreme Court bench over his controversial remarks. 

Speaking to the media outside the court, Hashmi had said "I ask Allah and and the Supreme Court for forgiveness." He claimed that he was talking against a particular mindset and not the judiciary, adding that "I am the biggest defender of the supremacy of the judiciary."

On June 3, the Attorney General of Pakistan Ashtar Ausaf also initiated action to file a criminal case against Hashmi.

According to sources, the Attorney General had written a letter to the Sindh government for the purpose. Hashmi would be booked under the sections 168, 228, and 505 of Pakistan Penal Code.
