NAB reference finalised against Jatoi

Author: Agencies

The National Accountability Bureau (NAB) Wednesday finalised a reference against Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leader and former Sindh chief minister Liaquat Ali Jatoi.

Jatoi is reportedly wanted in an ongoing reference pertaining to illegal appointments in Alternative Energy Development Board (AEDB) along with former prime minister Shaukat Aziz.

The former chief minister has already been granted bail before arrest by a high court, however the accountability bureau will challenge the high court’s decision for granting bail to Jatoi on July 12 in the Supreme Court.

In May, NAB Chairman Justice (r) Javed Iqbal had ordered the bureau to file a reference against Jatoi and Aziz over alleged misuse of authority.
