Deposed Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif said on Friday that Pakistan Muslim League - Nawaz (PML-N) will introduce comprehensive judicial system in Pakistan.

Addressing the media outside an accountability court, Sharif said that a comprehensive judicial system is desperately needed in Pakistan and his party will give it a priority in its election manifesto.

Saying that Senator Raza Rabbani and Senator Raja Zafarul Haq were better candidates than Sadiq Sanjrani, Sharif asked who was Sanjrani and that no one knew him. He said that there was a GPS that was guiding Pakistan Peoples Party and Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf to him. ''Everyone knows who is behind this.''

Sharif, who is facing three references filed by the National Accountability Bureau, appeared at an accountability court where former Panama case joint investigation team head Wajid Zia resumed recording his statements.

During the court proceedings on Friday, the Sharifs lawyers objected to the letter that was presented by Zia, as it was different than the one Zia had submitted earlier. Zia presented before the court the original letter from Qatari Prince Muhammad Bin Jasim al Thani, however, it turned out to be different than the photocopy of the letter he had presented in the court a day earlier.
