Ahsan’s reference in final phase, NAB informs Court

By Asghar Ali Mubarak

ISLAMABAD: An accountability court in Islamabad on Tuesday adjourned the Narowal Sports City case against PML-N leader Ahsan Iqbal and others until October 20. The PML-N leader appeared before the court as it resumed hearing the case instituted against him and others by the National Accountability Bureau (NAB). During the hearing, the bureau’s prosecutor informed the judge that the reference against the accused is in a final phase and would soon be filed before the court.
The court, thus, adjourned the hearing until October 20 with direction for the national graft buster to file the reference at the earliest. At the previous hearing, Ahsan’s lawyer had slammed the bureau saying it had failed to file a reference despite arresting his client.
