May 4, 2020
LAHORE (92 News) – The National Accountability Bureau (NAB) on Monday investigated Opposition Leader in the National Assembly Shehbaz Sharif for two hours in the money laundering and assets beyond known sources of income cases. The NAB had summoned Shehbaz Sharif for the third time, directing him to appear with documents detailing the properties inherited by him. The NAB has again summoned him or June 2. He had skipped the anti-graft watchdog body appearance for the last two times and submitted his response on both occasions through his counsel. However, NAB had termed the response submitted by PML-N president as unsatisfactory. Talking to the media after his appearance, PML-N spokesperson Marriyum Nawaz said that they would expose the NAB-Niazi nexus. “During the investigation today, no question was asked about money laundering.” She said that the NAB only interrogates the faces and cases of the Sharif family. “No question is put to flour and sugar thieves. All is being done on the orders of Imran Khan,” she said. The PML-N spokesperson said that Shehbaz Sharif had done the work which should have been done by the government. “No question has been asked about the reference filed against the Sharif family,” she maintained.
