NAB challenges bails of Shahid, Miftah, Ahsan in SC

ISLAMABAD: The National Accountability Bureau (NAB) Thursday challenged the bails of Pakistan Muslim League Nawaz (PMLN) leaders, Shahid Khaqan Abbasi, Ahsan Iqbal and Miftah Ismail, in the Supreme Court.

NAB filed separate petitions against the decisions of the Islamabad High Court (IHC) regarding granting of bails to Shahid Abbasi, Ahsan Iqbal and Miftah Ismail. NAB, in its prayer, pleaded with the court to declare bail decisions of Shahid Khaqan, Ahsan Iqbal and Miftah null and void, as there was no hardship matter in these cases. NAB stated that the IHC had ignored the facts in the decisions. It also named the federation as party in the case.
