ISLAMABAD: The Islamabad High Court (IHC) will hear Bushra Bibi’s application against the National Accountability Bureau’s new investigation related to the sale of Toshakhana gifts on Thursday.
A division bench of the IHC comprising Chief Justice Aamir Farooq and Justice Tariq Mehmood Jahangiri will hear the application.
Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) founder’s wife Bushra Bibi has challenged the NAB’s call-up notice in an inquiry related to Toshakhana gifts.
The petitioner has made the NAB chairman, NAB deputy director and Adiala Jail superintendent as respondents in the petition.
NAB has accused PTI founder Imran Khan and Bushra Bibi of illegally selling valuable gifts. The bureau issued a call-up notice on April 9 and called Bushra Bibi for investigation on April 16 at the NAB office Rawalpindi.
Bushra Bibi said in her petition that the call-up notice of NAB was illegal as the petitioner had already been sentenced to 14-year imprisonment in the Toshakhana reference based on the same allegations, against which an appeal was pending in the IHC.
She submitted that the purpose of the new call-up notice was only to humiliate the petitioner again after the suspension of sentence in the Toshakhana NAB reference.
She alleged that NAB was being used as a political weapon against her by the government. The high court was requested to declare the NAB call-up notice issued on April 9 as illegal and restrained the bureau from carrying out further investigation in this matter.
