The Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) leader had presented himself before NAB Rawalpindi today following the declination of his petition seeking 15-day immunity from appearances.

"If NAB calls me everyday then I will come everyday. I have provided NAB with all documents that they asked for,” he said talking to the media following the NAB appearance.
