IHC disposes of Qaim Ali Shah’s pre-arrest bail plea
ISLAMABAD: The Islamabad High Court (IHC) on Tuesday disposed of former chief minister Sindh Qaim Ali Shah’s pre-arrest bail plea in the corruption case.
IHC Chief Justice Athar Minallah conducted the hearing. Qaim Ali Shah, along with Shah Khawar advocate, appeared before the court. During hearing, Justice Athar Minallah asked about the age of Qasim Ali Shah. ‘I’m 85 years old,” replied Qaim Ali Shah. To this, IHC CJ asked the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) prosecutor that do they really want to arrest an old man?
The NAB prosecutor replied: “The investigation against former chief minister Sindh underway and at the current stage they are not going to arrest him.”
Hearing the arguments Justice Minallah disposed of the pre-arrest bail plea of Qaim Ali Shah. According to NAB, Qaim Ali Shah is accused of abusing his powers while being chief minister Sindh and allowed 43 acres of land in Brohi Goth, Nazimabad.
The former chief minister is also facing charges of massive corruption in Roshan Sindh project initiated by the provincial government for the installation of solar streetlights across the province.
