Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz leader Maryam Nawaz Thursday released two more video clips to corroborate her claim that a judge met a PML-N supporter to confess that he was "blackmailed and forced" to convict former premier Nawaz Sharif in a corruption case.

Sharif, 69, has been serving a seven-year prison term at the Kot Lakhpat Jail in Lahore since December 24, 2018 when Accountability Court Judge Arshad Malik convicted him in the Al-Azizia Steel Mills case - one of the three cases filed in the wake of the apex court's July 28, 2017 order in Panama Papers case.

Uploading two video clips on Twitter on Judge Malik's meeting with PML-N sympathiser Nasir Butt at the former's residence, Maryam on Wednesday said: "Judge Malik's official car with a green number plate comes to escort Nasir Butt who then follows the car to Judge's residence. (It) belies all claims of Judge Malik that he mentioned in his press release."
