He said the NAB case against Mian Mansha pertains to money laundering. “Mian Mansha needs to prove his version of transferring money abroad.” He said situation would be clearer once Mina Mansha submits the money trail.
Akbar said Rs 537 million had been deposited to the national exchequer so far.
“It is yet to be seen whether in what heads the money was transferred abroad”, he added.
He said it was hoped that more than Rs 7 billion would be garnered during the government action against money launderers. He said land around 11,000 acres was either benami or encroached.
