SHC extends Manzoor Wasan’s interim bail until December 22 in assets case

KARACHI: The Sindh High Court (SHC) on Thursday extended interim bail of Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) senior leader Manzoor Wasan until December 22, in the assets case, ARY News reported.

At the out of the hearing, the NAB prosecutor said that inquiry against Manzoor Wasan has been completed and was sent to the NAB headquarters but few issues were raised by the graft-buster body.

The issues have addressed by NAB Sukkur now, he added.

The SHC while extending interim bail of Manzoor Wasan until December 22 has sought inquiry reported from the NAB officials.

At a previous hearing, Barrister Zameer Ahmed had said that the NAB has failed to collect evidence against his client and had demanded to extended bail of his client, which was accepted.

According to the NAB, the PPP leader is accused of making assets beyond his known sources of income and owns benami properties too.

The National Accountability Bureau (NAB) has failed in filing reference against the PPP stalwart despite the passage of two years.
