ISLAMABAD: The Accountability Court Islamabad Monday extended physical remand of the PML-N senior leader Ahsan Iqbal in Narowal Sports City corruption reference by seven days.
The National Accountability Bureau (NAB) produced Ahsan Iqbal before the Accountability Court Judge Azam Khan. During the hearing, the NAB prosecutor briefed the court about development in investigation process and requested the court to grant further 14-day physical remand of the accused. However, the court directed the NAB investigators to complete the inquiry as early as possible as they would not get more remand of the PML-N leader in future. The court granted seven days remand.
The NAB Prosecutor Usman Mirza pleaded that even the feasibility study of the project was not conducted, which was an evidence of dishonesty. He said that after the 18th Amendment, the federal government had no authority on a provincial project. He said the court had granted seven days remand previously, out of which, for two days the accused was attending the assembly session.
