Probing an assets beyond known sources of income case, the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) has issued a summon order to Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) leader Khurshid Ahmed Shah’s brother who passed away eight years ago, ARY News reported.
According to reports, NAB has summoned the deceased to appear before investigators on March 3.
The development comes days after former leader of opposition Shah also appeared before an accountability court in Sukkur in an assets beyond means case against him on February 18.
Shah, Provincial Minister Awais Qadir and PPP lawmaker Farrukh Shah are among the 18 accused facing graft charges in a reference filed by the anti-corruption watchdog.
17 of the accused, including the ailing former Opp leader who was brought in an ambulance from the National Institute of Cardiovascular Diseases (NICVD), were present during the court hearing held two weeks ago.
Later, accountability court judge Ameer Ali Mahesar adjourned the hearing until March 9.
NAB has also nominated two wives, two sons and a son-in-law of Shah in the reference.
