money laundering case: NAB summons ex-PM Yousuf Raza Gillani

The National Accountability Bureau (NAB) has summoned Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) leader and former prime minister Yousuf Raza Gillani in connection with investigation into the money laundering case.

The former prime minister has been asked to turn up at the old NAB headquarters today for questioning, according to sources.

It is pertinent to mention here that the bureau has already interrogated former president Asif Ali Zardari, PPP Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari, Sindh Chief Minister Syed Murad Ali Shah and former chief minister Syed Qaim Ali Shah since the case was transferred to Rawalpindi from Karachi.

Reports say PPP co-chairperson Asif Ali Zardari and his son Bilawal Bhutto Zardari have decided to seek more time from NAB to file reply in the money laundering case.

According to sources, the top PPP leaders would write a letter to NAB in this regard. The letter will be forwarded to the accountability watchdog by Farooq H. Naek.

Sources within the PPP said the party leaders would seek a period of 15 days to file reply to NAB questionnaire. The top leaders couldn’t yet submit reply due to busy schedule in the wake of party activities, sources added.
