LONDON: President Mamnoon Hussain called for taking action against corruption and accountability of corrupt people in Pakistan.
The President Mamnoon who arrived here on Friday told a group of Pakistani media persons at the airport that he was in favour of holding accountability of corrupt people in the country.
"Its the divine law that whenever somebody is involved in corruption, he is sooner or later definitely apprehended after investigation for his crime", he said.
