Fake accounts case: Zardari granted bail on medical grounds

ISLAMABAD (92 News) - The Islamabad High Court (IHC) has approved the bail of PPP Co-Chairperson Asif Ali Zardari in the fake accounts case.

It is pertinent to mention here that the NAB has accused Zardari of carrying out suspicious transactions worth Rs8 billion. Zardari, who is being investigated in different corruption and money laundering cases, had filed for bail on medical grounds.

The court approved his bail after reviewing the report of the medical board in the case. The board was formed to look at Zardari’s medical reports and then submit a report on them.

The NAB prosecutor was asked if he trusted the board’s report. The prosecutor failed, however, to give a clear answer.
