LAHORE: The National Accountability Bureau (NAB) summoned on Thursday PML-N Vice President Maryam Nawaz for questioning in an alleged illegal land transfer case.
She is required to turn up at the bureau’s Lahore office on March 26. According to the corruption watchdog, the Sharif family members allegedly illegally acquired 3,500 kanals of land in Raiwind in collusion with the district administration and revenue officials in 2013.
In 2015, then Lahore Development Authority (LDA) director general Ahad Cheema and the Lahore deputy commissioner altered the master plan, declaring hundreds of kanals of land green-land area, the NAB said. Maryam has been asked to bring relevant land record along with her. On Wednesday, the national graft buster summoned the PML-N vice president in the Chaudhry Sugar Mills case.
