ISLAMABAD - Former CJP Justice Saqib Nisar has advised the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) to tread carefully, and first wrap up the old cases.

He said country couldn’t be strengthened until its institutions were empowered and strengthened.
The former chief justice was of the view that all the suo motu notices he had taken were ‘right’.
“Our life and death is connected with Pakistan. If there had been no Pakistan, we would have been doing some ordinary job,” he added.

Honesty is a key feature for a country to succeed, said the former CJP.
