There cannot be a more beautiful and unforgettable word in english language, for that matter in any language, than the word MOTHER.

The Supreme Court of Pakistan not only heard the Panama Papers case in a fast-track trial that lasted just 15 months but also ensured that Nawaz Sharif does not stay in power. This apart, the Pak Apex Court constituted another Investigating Committee to go deep into the case, investigate and punish all those who are…
