The third case opened an old complaint lodged by a politician decades ago against the “troika” – composed of the president, the prime minister, and the chief of army staff – that then governed Pakistan. The plaintiff alleged that large amounts of funds were channeled to the troika’s favored candidates to contest the 1990 general election, in which Nawaz Sharif’s party won a big victory over Benazir Bhutto’s Peoples’ Party.
第三个案件则重新揭示了一位政治家在几十年前对巴基斯坦“三驾马车”——总统，总理以及武装部队总参谋长——的控诉。原告声称有巨额资金被输送到三人心仪的候选人身上以帮助其进行1990年的议会大选，当时谢里夫的政党以极大优势击败了贝布托的人民党。
