The National Accountability Bureau (NAB) has approved repatriation of Hasan Nawaz and Hussain Nawaz through Interpol.
NAB Chairman Ju
stice (r) Javed Iqbal told media on Thursday that the accountability body has accorded approval to bring the sons of former prime minister Nawaz Sharif back to Pakistan with
the Interpol’s assistance. Dismissing speculation, Iqbal said the bureau does not have any political motives and is not out to target any political party. “[Politicians] can run election
campaign but when summoned before NAB, they should appear before the bureau,” he added.
The anti-graft body is also likely to initiate proceedings to bring former finance minister Ishaq Dar and Ali Imr
an, son-in-law of PML-N president Shehbaz Sharif, back to the country. The anti-corruption watchdog has also reportedly recommended placement of names of Punjab government secretaries, Ali Jan and Najam Shah, on the exit control list.
