ISLAMABAD: There are stark similarities in the issues of offshore companies, owned by the children of Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif, and those of top Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf leader Jehangir Tareen, which stress the need for an across-the-board accountability, instead of pinpointing any individuals.
Names and other details of the offshore companies owned by the Sharif family are k**wn because of the Panama Papers, whereas Tareen is yet to disclose details of his children’s offshore companies. These offshore companies are managed by trusts in both cases. The Sharif family has an**unced that one trust is managed by Maryam Nawaz and the other by Kalsoom Nawaz, but Tareen is yet to disclose who is trustee of the trust, of which his children are beneficial owners.
The Panama Papers show Maryam Nawaz as the beneficial owner of two offshore companies, while the Sharif family has declared her only as the trustee or the manager of the trust. This is something that the Sharif family would have to prove before the Panama Commission.
Both sides claim that children were grown up and independent so the offshore companies in their names were **t mentioned in the asset declarations of the elder Sharif and Mr Tareen. Hussain Nawaz’s year of birth is 1971, Maryam’s 1973 and Hassan’s is 1976. However, the exact years of birth of Tareen’s children i.e. Ali, Maryam, Seher and Mehar are unk**wn yet.
Both families have properties outside Pakistan which are **t linked to offshore companies. The Sharif family has property in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, while the Tareen family has property in Canada, declared by him.
Complete details of monies transferred outside Pakistan by both families are unk**wn yet. The Sharif family has to disclose total amounts of money, sources of money and channel of its transfer outside Pakistan to the UK in 1993 to set up offshore companies and the purchase of flats and then in 1999 to pay off the loans. The total money will be in millions of pounds. The Tareen family also has to declare total amounts of money transferred outside Pakistan to set up offshore companies, sources of the money and channels used to transfer the amount, which also should be in millions of pounds.
The offshore companies maintained by both families own residential properties in the UK.
Both families claim that the monies sent abroad were earned through legal means and were taxed in Pakistan. Only in-depth investigation by the Panama Commission could reveal the truth in both cases.
Both families haven’t declared the exact names and details of the offshore companies in their tax returns in Pakistan, though members of both families, who are linked with the offshore companies, are also permanent residents of Pakistan. Both families were hiding these offshore companies and only admitted owning them at the time of the release of the Panama Papers in one case and after the publication of a story by The News in the other case.
