Author: Daily Times Monitor

A joint investigation team (JIT) formed by the Supreme Court to probe Federal Minister Azam Swati’s misconduct and assets has completed its investigation, a private TV channel reported on Saturday, citing sources.

The report prepared by the JIT will be submitted in the Supreme Court.

The JIT has been probing alleged misuse of authority, misconduct and encroachment by the federal minister. Swati appeared before the JIT at the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) headquarters on Wednesday and was questioned for almost two hours.

A three-judge bench headed by Chief Justice Mian Saqib Nisar had taken suo motu notice of the matter and formed the JIT to probe allegations of misuse of authority, misconduct and encroachment against the minister.
