LAHORE: Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) chief Nawaz Sharif on Wednesday said that the nation was fully aware of motives behind conspiracies being hatched against the Supreme Court, DawnNews reported.

The PML-N chief, in a statement issued here on Wednesday, cautioned those ‘elements’ who were facing the apex court’s verdicts, that they will make a mistake by believing to get away from law’s clench.

He said that political parties, civil society, intellectuals and masses are standing with the free judiciary and the chief justice.

Sharif said that Chief Justice Iftikhar Mohammad Chaudhry has set a right precedence by bringing his son into court rooms.

The PML-N’s struggle, to end Dogar courts and for restoration of free judiciary, is part of the history, said the party chief.
