LAHORE: The National Accountability Bureau (NAB) has summoned Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) President and Leader of Opposition in the National Assembly Shahbaz Sharif in a money laundering case on Friday (today).
The NAB has sought details of properties inherited by the PML-N leader. According to the bureau, Shahbaz’s family assets grew from Rs23 million to Rs549 billion from 1998 to 2018. “As a public office holder Shahbaz needs to explain the increase in his assets,” it said.
The accountability watchdog has also asked the PML-N leader to submit bank details along with the loan taken from Barclays from 2005 to 2007.
Furthermore, the NAB has sought details of all the gifts received and given by the family, details of agriculture income from 2008 to 2019, and details about the utilisation of Shahbaz’s Model Town residence as chief minister’s camp office.
Last year in December, the NAB had issued orders to freeze 23 pieces of property belonging to the former Punjab chief minister and his sons Hamza and Suleman Shahbaz over the allegation that they acquired assets beyond their means and committed money laundering.
