SUKKUR: The National Accountability Bureau (NAB) sought the court for an extension in remand of the Pakistan People’s Pary (PPP) central leader Khursheed Shah on Tuesday, ARY News reported.
The accountability court conducted hearing of the case related to the arrest of Khursheed Shah here today.
As the hearing went underway, the NAB prosecutor said that the Shah’s house is constructed on welfare plot with the cost of Rs60 million which came under the investigation of assets beyond income.
He added that the investigators have found 10 bank accounts of the politicians along with records of transactions up to millions of rupees. The prosecutor told the court that Shah possesses various benami [undisclosed] properties.
The politician’s counsel Mukesh Kumar argued that Shah is the target of political revenge as the high court had earlier acquitted him in the allegations. He complained that the NAB officials did not allow him to meet Shah despite the court orders. He claimed that the on-duty officials forced him to talk in the Urdu language with Shah.
