The Accountability Court hearing multi-billion-rupee fake bank accounts case on Tuesday rejected former president Asif Ali Zardari's sister Faryal Talpur's plea to unfreeze her bank accounts.
Accountability Court judge Muhammad Azam Khan, while announcing the reserve verdict, turned down Talpur's application requesting to unfreeze her bank accounts, and ordered to keep her bank accounts frozen, while directed unfreezing accounts of her children.
The same court on March 10 had reserved verdict on Pakistan People's Party (PPP) leader Talpur's petition seeking restoration of her bank accounts. During the hearing, Talpur's counsel Farooq H Naek had stated that freezing bank accounts of her client, before the approval of the inquiry was against the law.
Opposing the plea, the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) prosecutor had said that Talpur was the director and signatory of Zardari Group of Companies.
Transactions have taken place from fake accounts into the accounts of Zardari Group of Companies, he said.
The NAB prosecutor said that caution had earlier been imposed over the accounts before shifting of the case from the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) to the NAB. Talpur's counsel Farooq H Naek told the court that his client had not requested to unfreeze the accounts of Zardari Group of Companies, and filed the application to unfreeze her personal accounts.
