The National Accountability Bureau, Rawalpindi chapter, again issued summons to former Accountability Advisor Mirza Shahzad Akbar asking him to appear on June 23 in an alleged illegal transfer of 190 million pounds in the Al-Qadir Trust case.
Mirza did not appear in response to the previous summons issued by NAB on May 22. Consequently, NAB has issued another summons to Mirza.
Furthermore, calling notices have also been issued to Zulfi Bukhari and Barrister Ziaudin.
The anti-graft watchdog believed that Shahzad Akbar concealed vital information from the federal cabinet while seeking approval for the previously signed deed.
The anti-graft agency has accused Shahzad Akbar of being involved in various activities alongside Imran Khan. NAB claims that on November 25, 2019, an amount exceeding PKR 23.33 billion was transferred to Pakistan. Additionally, on November 26, 2019, an amount exceeding PKR 3.99 billion was received. Moreover, on May 11, 2018, an amount exceeding PKR 8.02 billion was deposited.
Instead of being deposited into the national treasury, these funds were settled against Bahria Town’s dues.
Shahzad Akbar has been directed to bring all relevant documents related to the Al-Qadir Trust case for further investigation.
