LAHORE: A National Accountability Bureau (NAB) team has raided and sealed the warehouses and shops of a sugar dealer in Sadiqabad.

The action follows an investigation into a scandal involving the dealer, who failed to pay billions of rupees to local businessmen after purchasing sugar.

The main accused, Sheikh Rashid, along with co-accused Kashif Ali and Faisal Ali, are being proceeded against under the law.

The assistant commissioner concerned has been appointed the receiver of the frozen properties of the accused.

The NAB has urged all victims of this fraud to remain calm and submit their claims immediately to the bureau for processing.
