Popis: The Panama Papers, which number nearly 11.5 million pages, were leaked in private. This paper revisited the Panama papers leaks and the connection of Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif from PML (N) in it. As a result of the leaks, Pakistan's Supreme Court heard a significant case against Nawaz Sharif, the country's prime minister, and the opposition parties responded to the case in different ways. This paper particularly revealed the reaction of the Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) as a major opposition party in the Parliament of Pakistan towards the PML (N) Government. This paper presented the views of major PPP leaders and legislatures about the Panama Leaks Case. This study uses the qualitative technique and is based on the collection of both primary and secondary data. Selected interviews of politicians, held in 2021 conducted as primary data, and journal publications and largely trustworthy newspaper articles were selected as secondary data.
