ISLAMABAD, Oct 6 (TNS): After repeated disassociation from the matter of appointment of NAB Chairman, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) has finally dived in to recommend three names from their side.
The recommended names for the position of National Accountability Bureau (NAB) chief by PTI include Shoaib Suddle, Arbab Shehzad and Justice (retd) Falak Sher. PTI leader Shah Mehmood Qureshi has confirmed these recommendations from their side.
PTI had earlier remained disassociated from the task and were in the bid to appoint new Opposition Leader, expressing their dissatisfaction with Khurshid Shah. A consultation had taken place between PTI leaders a few days ago in which they decide to change tactics.
It appears as if PTI – who repeatedly called it match-fixing between government and opposition for the task – will also give their input for the appointment of NAB Chairman.
On Thursday, Leader of the Opposition in the National Assembly Khursheed Shah, once again asked Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) to suggest a good name for National Accountability Bureau (NAB) chairman.
Earlier, Khursheed Shah met Prime Minister Shahid Khaqan Abbasi to hold consultations over names for the appointment of the new National Accountability Bureau (NAB) chairman.
Shah, after the meeting, said the government suggested three names, namely, Justice (Retd) Rehmat Jafry, Justice (Retd) Chaudhry Aijaz and Director General Intelligence Bureau Aftab Sultan.
Names suggested by the opposition are Justice (Retd) Faqer Mohammad Khokhar, Justice (Retd) Javed Iqbal and former secretary of the Election Commission of Pakistan Ishtiaque Ahmed Khan
