|
[DAWN] Former Punjab chief minister Shahbaz Sharif was on Friday arrested by the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) at its Lahore office in connection with the Rs14 billion Ashiana-i-Iqbal Housing Scheme case, the bureau said in a statement.
Shahbaz, the Leader of the Opposition in the National Assembly, has been accused of corruption in the Ashiana Housing scheme case. He will be produced before an accountability court for remand tomorrow.
He will be kept in a highly-secured lock-up inside the NAB Lahore office until his appearance in court.
The PML-N president will be presented before Administrative Judge Syed Najmul Hassan amidst tight security. NAB will request the court for a 14-day physical remand of Shahbaz, NAB prosecutor Waris Ali Janjua told DawnNewsTV.
Lawyer Amjad Pervez will represent Shahbaz before the court.
Shahbaz was detained by NAB officials after he appeared before the bureau in the Saaf Pani Company scam case at around 2:55pm. The news of his arrest emerged around 3:35pm after his car was sent away. His private staff who accompanied him as security were also sent away.
