NAB claims substantial evidence against Shahbaz Sharif

ISLAMABAD - The National Accountability Bureau (NAB) claims getting substantial evidence against Shahbaz Sharif in Ashiana Housing Scheme scandal.

NAB said on Wednesday that it has substantial evidence against former Punjab chief minister Shehbaz Sharif, adding that the investigation in the Ashiana Housing Scheme scam and other cases is in “final phase”.

In an interview with Kamran Khan, NAB DG Saleem Shehzad said, “Shehbaz Sharif lies when he says he has not committed a corruption of even a single penny.”

The NAB official added that the case against Shehbaz has a lot of substance. Moreover, he accused Saad Rafique of using his influence on the prosecutor’s witnesses.

Shehbaz, who was arrested by NAB on October 5 in the Ashiana Housing case, told the court that he has been investigated for more than a month now but not even a penny’s worth of corruption could be proven against him.
