Zulfi is a close aid of the prime minister and was given the charge of PTI’s election campaign in NA-53 for the July 25 polls.
His name was put on ECL after the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) initiated an inquiry against him on the accusations of owning off-shore companies in the British Virgin Islands and owning assets beyond his known source of income.
