Some records do however suggest corruption or fraud by business leaders, politicians, athletes, and other wealthy individuals and organizations. The secrecy of offshore companies also allows tax evasion fraud or income and identity obfuscation.

Various judges have already recused themselves. In addition on April 19, 2016 Army Chief General Raheel Sharif warned that across-the-board accountability is needed.
