LAHORE: The Lahore High Court on Thursday disposed of pre-arrest bail petition of Capt (r) Muhammad Safdar, son-in-law of former Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif, after the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) said it did not so far require the custody of the petitioner in the inquiry of assets beyond means initiated against him.
At this, the bench comprising Justice Alia Neelum and Justice Syed Shahbaz Ali Rizvi disposed of the petition. The bench directed the NAB to give the petitioner 10-day time, as per a Supreme Court’s decision, for approaching the court if his arrest warrants were issued.
