An accountability court on Thursday fixed October 4 to indict former president Asif Ali Zardari and his sister Faryal Talpur in the money laundering and fake accounts case.
The National Accountability Court (NAB) presented Zardari before Judge Muhammad Bashir’s court, however, Talpur could not be presented in the hearing due to a session in the Sindh Assembly.
Condemning the arrest of Pakistan Peoples Party’s senior leader Khursheed Shah on Wednesday, Zardari said the government can arrest whoever they want. “We don’t even need the production orders,” he said.
Pakistan Peoples Party senior leadership, Omni Group’s Anwar Majeed and his son Abdul Ghani Majeed, former Pakistan Stock Exchange chairperson Hussain Lawai, Summit Bank Senior Vice-President Taha Raza are among those being investigated in cases related to the fake accounts scandal.
