LAHORE: The National Accountability Bureau (NAB) summoned PML-N Vice President Maryam Nawaz on Thursday for questioning in another an alleged illegal land transfer case.
The NAB had not summoned Ms Nawaz since August last when violence erupted outside its Lahore headquarters on her arrival to record statement in investigation against her.
Maryam Nawaz has been directed to bring all records along on March 26.
It is pertinent to mention here that the anti-graft body has summoned Maryam Nawaz in Chaudhry Sugar Mills case as well on March 26 in Lahore office.
Reportedly, NAB has obtained strong proofs against the PML-N leader and will be investigating her in light of fresh evidences.
The NAB got active against Maryam Nawaz following her tirade against it. Earlier, the national anti-graft body moved the Lahore High Court seeking cancellation of the post-arrest bail granted to her in November 2019 in the Chaudhry Sugar Mills’ case. The court has issued a notice to her for April 7.
Thousands of kanal of land in the area was declared green land, it further alleged.
The PML-N leader has been directed to bring all the records with her on March 26.
It is pertinent to mention that Maryam Nawaz has also been called to appear before the NAB in the Chaudhry Sugar Mills case on the same day.
In her last appearance before NAB in a money-laundering case in August 2020, clashes had taken place outside NAB office between police and PML-N workers.
The anti-corruption watchdog had also approached the Lahore High Court for the cancellation of bail given to Maryam in the CSM case – a request that was rejected by the court.
