Judges at the Islamabad High Court on Wednesday scolded PML-N leader Maryam Nawaz for not adhering to courtroom decorum.

Nawaz was late to the hearingof an appeal against convictions in Avenfield and Alazizia references and did not know proceedings had already begun when she walked in with her supporters.

The judges expressed their annoyance with the PML-N leader.

Justice Aamir Farooq "reprimanded Maryam Nawaz for failing to observe the court decorum and asked whether the court should cancel her bail" reported Samaa News.

PML-N leader Atta Tarrar quickly apologized on her behalf.

The court has set Sept 8 as the next date for the hearing as the party's lead lawyer could not be present.

Once outside the courtroom, Maryam Nawaz spoke to journalists about her uncle's comments on a national government which has stirred controversy. She distanced herself from his statement and said PML-N was not ready to talk to the government.
