An accountability court on Thursday extended the physical remand of former prime minister and Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) leader Shahid Khaqan Abbasi until August 29 in an ongoing probe into the liquefied natural gas (LNG) case. The PML-N leader was presented before the court today, following the expiration of his remand. During the hearing, judge Mohammad Bashir asked the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) prosecutor how much more remand did he need. To this, the NAB prosecutor replied they need a 14-day extension. Abbasi then told the court that during the probe, NAB asks for documents and that whatever he is asked he gives an answer for that. The court then granted NAB 14-day physical remand of the PML-N leader and ordered that Abbasi be presented before the court again on August 29.
