The National Accountability Bureau (NAB) has summoned details of the properties of former president General (retd) Pervez Musharraf and his family in the ongoing probe against him for amassing assets beyond means and misuse of power. The orders were issued through a notification to the Lahore additional district collector (revenue) in this regard on Saturday. The directive asked the authorities concerned to provide all record of the properties under the name of Musharraf, his wife and daughter till May 9. On May 3, the NAB had asked former president to hand over details of vehicles registered in his and his family’s names. The authority wrote a letter to the Excise Department as part of its probe into Musharraf’s assets, asking for details of vehicles. According to the Excise Department, Musharraf’s wife is the owner of a land cruiser. In February, the Islamabad High Court (IHC) allowed an investigation against the former president. A two-member IHC bench comprising Justice Athar Minallah and Justice Miangul Hassan Aurangzeb issued the directive on a petition filed by Lt Col Inaam Rahim. Rahim had sought an investigation into the alleged corruption of the former president. The corruption watchdog’s Rawalpindi chapter has sought details of the former military ruler’s properties in Lahore and has issued a notification to the district administration.
