ISLAMABAD: The Accountability Court, Islamabad, Tuesday rejected former president Asif Ali Zardari’s sister Faryal Talpur plea seeking restoration of her bank accounts.
Accountability court Judge Azam Khan announces its verdict to keep Faryal Talpur’s bank accounts frozen, while directed to unfreeze accounts of her children. On March 10, an accountability court had reserved verdict on PPP leader Faryal Talpur’s petition seeking restoration of her bank accounts.
During hearing Faryal Talpur’s lawyer Farooq H Naek had stated that freezing bank accounts of her client before the approval of inquiry is against the law. Opposing the plea, the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) prosecutor had said that transactions of billions of rupees were conducted from the bank accounts of the accused. Faryal’s plea is not on merit. “The bank accounts were freeze as per the law,” he added.
