Dar is also facing several inquiries and also accused of not submitting details of his assets for 22 years.

Dar was elected as a senator on a technocrat seat from Punjab in 2018. He could not take oath due to his stay in London. However, the SC suspended his membership over his failure to appear in court on May 8, 2018.
