The court directed the national graft buster to produce him on completion of his remand.
Khan was arrested on Sept 22 after the Supreme Court dismissed his interim bail.
A three-judge apex court bench, headed by Justice Umar Ata Bandial, rejected the plea through a short order after hearing arguments from the accused’s lawyer Barrister Latif Khosa and the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) prosecutor.
