Islamabad, July 30 (IBNS): Days after resigning, Nawaz Sharif on Sunday vacated the Pakistan Prime Minister's House, media reports said.

According  to media reports, he has departed for Murree along with members of the Sharif family.

On Sunday, before he departed for Murree, Nawaz met with members of the staff at the PM's House, Dawn News reported.

Nawaz Sharif on Friday stepped down from the post after the Supreme Court disqualified him from holding public office,media reports said.

The court was announcing its verdict in connection with the  Panama Papers case.

His stepping down brought Nawaz Sharif's third term in power to an unceremonious end.

He stepped down nearly an year before Pakistan would have participated in the scheduled general elections.
