The former president Asif Ali Zardari has been summoned by the National Accountability Bureau in the fake accounts case on May 9.
According to sources, Zardari has been summoned for questioning as NAB has constructed another reference in the fake accounts case. The former president will be questioned on the basis of the new reference.
The NAB officials stated that the summons sent by NAB is regarding the Harish and Company case.

“Harish and Company was the front company to Park Lane Estate which led to a loss of Rs60 million to the national exchequer,” said the NAB officials.
The sources further claimed that a reference has been filed against former Secretary Special Initiative Department Ejaz Ahmed Khan and others.
Former president Asif Ali Zardari and his sister Faryal Talpur are accused in the fake accounts case and have been granted interim bail till May 9.
