Former PSPM Fawad Hasan Fawad lands into yet another trouble

LAHORE: Former PSPM Fawad Hasan Fawad lands into yet another trouble from the National Accountability Bureau (NAB).

NAB says it will challenge a Lahore High Court (LHC) order granting bail to Fawad Hasan Fawad, a former principal secretary to two ex-prime ministers implicated in an assets beyond means case.

On Tuesday, the LHC granted bail to the former bureaucrat against bonds worth Rs10 million after staying in NAB custody for almost 19 months.

Chairman NAB has already issued orders for the anti-graft watchdog to challenge the ex-principal secretary's bail in the Supreme Court.

The anti-graft watchdog had filed two separate cases against Fawad, who served as principal secretary to former prime minister Shahid Khaqan Abbasi when he was elected to the post after Nawaz Sharif's disqualification.
