LONDON: Broadsheet, an asset recovery form, chief Kaveh Mousavi has apologized for the allegations leveled against former prime minister Nawaz Sharif.
In an interview with Geo News, Broadsheet CEO and former Oxford University associate Kaveh Mousavi said he was ashamed to be part of a two-decade-old campaign to target Nawaz Sharif in the name of accountability.

He said he apologized for the accuracy of the record as the forensic investigation into the two-decade-long broadsheet did not find even the slightest evidence of “one rupee” corruption against Nawaz Sharif or his family.
Mousavi said that as a result of the Broadsheet investigation, there was not a single rupee of corruption, stolen, hidden or undisclosed assets of any member of the family of former prime minister Nawaz Sharif.
“I got a lot of looted money, but after almost 21 years of investigation, I can say that if anyone speaks against my claim, he is lying,” he said.
Kaveh Mousavi, who negotiated extensively with the National Accountability Bureau (NAB), said that there was no doubt that NAB had filed cases against Nawaz Sharif on political grounds and that was the reason why he was seeking apology from Nawaz Sharif today.
“I have no hesitation in apologizing for being part of the NAB’s fraud against former prime minister Nawaz Sharif,” he said. When asked if he knew that apologizing to Nawaz Sharif would have profound political consequences, Mousavi reiterated his apology directly to Nawaz Sharif. “Mr. Sharif, we apologize to you because Mr. Sharif you were clearly the victim of a big organized scandal and there is no doubt that I can change my mind when the facts change.”
“We were persuaded 22 years ago when Pervez Musharraf asked for an investigation against you and we started an investigation but we saw that the investigation was sabotaged at every turn, not because we were getting too close to things but because their intention was something else because their purpose was only to target. They had nothing to do with finding the looted wealth,” he added.
