AC Judge Farid Anwar Qazi was hearing the case. PPP leader Khursheed Shah and other accused appeared before the court. During the hearing, NAB’s counsel requested the court to defer the indictment as more evidence has been gathered against Shah and others. Accepting NAB’s request, the court adjourned the hearing of the case till September 8. Talking to newsmen, Shah said that the NAB has failed to register reference against him despite the passage of 12 months and vowed to fight corruption charges levelled against him.
