KARACHI: Sindh High Court (SHC) Thursday approved extension in interim bail of former Chief Minister Sindh Syed Qaim Ali Shah till 21st March in a petition related to call up notice issued by the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) in case of grant of land to Malir Development Authority (MDA).
A two-member bench of the SHC heard the bail plea of former chief minister who appeared before the court along with his counsel Barrister Zamir Ghumro.
Shah’s counsel submitted that the previous allotment of the said land has already been cancelled.
Shah stated that issuing call up notice is a political revenge and the NAB is targeting Pakistan Peoples’ Party (PPP) due to political motives.
He pleaded that NAB should be stopped for arresting him and its call up notice should be termed illegal.
According to NAB prosecutor, there are two inquiries under investigation against Qaim Ali Shah.
Prosecutor stated that Investigation officers of both inquiries are present in the court room but NAB is not provided the copy of reply by the accused.
The court directed the Shahs counsel to provide copies to the NAB prosecutor.
