Correct answer: (c) Pakistan
Explanation
- A
Maldives
The Maldives had political turmoil in those years, but the Panama Papers jail sentence of ten years for a prime minister is not the Maldives pairing. This option is not the key.
- B
Trinidad
Trinidad is not the country whose prime minister received that ten-year sentence on Panama Papers facts as keyed here. This option is therefore wrong.
- C
Pakistan
Pakistan’s former Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif was disqualified and later sentenced in corruption cases that grew from the Panama Papers revelations about his family’s offshore holdings. The paper keys Pakistan. This option is the official key.
- D
None of the above
Because Pakistan is named, none of the above is incorrect. This option is not the key.
Summary. Official key is (c) Pakistan. The 2016 Panama Papers listed companies linked to the Sharif family; Pakistani courts then barred and convicted Nawaz Sharif. Maldives and Trinidad are not that match. Only (c) is the stored country.
