Islamabad March 28 (TNS): An accountability court on Wednesday could not indict three co-accused, who are being harangued with former finance minister Ishaq Dar in the illegal assets case.
When trial court judge Mohammad Bashir resumed the hearing, two co-accused, Naeem Mehmood and Mansoor Raza, were produced before the court while National Bank of Pakistan former president Saeed Ahmed did not appear as his counsel said that his client was on a two-day exemption.
The trial court deferred the indictment of the three co-accused till March 30 and directed the two accused to furnish surety bonds worth Rs1 million each to the court.
Dar is facing a reference for possessing assets disproportionate to his declared sources of income and the anti-graft body has filed a reference against him in the light of the Supreme Court’s July 28, 2017, verdict in the Panama Papers case.
