Pakistan PM Nawaz Sharif resigns after Supreme Court order to disqualify him
Pakistan Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif on Friday resigned from his post, his
office said, hours after the country's Supreme Court disqualified him over
corruption claims against his family.
According to Reuters, the Supreme Court said Sharif is not fit to hold office and ordered a
criminal investigation into him and his family. The court also disqualified
Finance Minister Ishaq Dar.
The Prime Minister's office said in a statement that Sharif has "stepped
down" despite having "serious reservations" about the judicial process.
