NAB grills Nawaz Sharif in Chaudhry Sugar Mills case
LAHORE (DNA) – A combined investigation team of the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) on Tuesday investigated former premier Nawaz Sharif in Chaudhry Sugar Mills corruption case.
NAB raised 13 questions during the probe to which they did not receive satisfactory responses from the former Prime Minister.
According to sources, Nawaz Sharif told the NAB team that business affairs are being handled by Hussain Nawaz and they should inquire him about such questions. The anti-graft watchdog investigated former Prime Minister about Rs410 million which were laundered through the partnership of his nephew Yousuf Abbas and daughter Maryam Nawaz.
Nawaz Sharif continued asserting that they should take the questions to the concerned party adding that doing a business is not illegal.
The Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) President was investigated about the transfer of shares worth eleven million to a foreigner Naseer Abdullah. To this, Nawaz Sharif answered that his family has business connections with him.
When the anti-graft watchdog inquired about the reasons for returning the transferred shares in 2014, he reiterated that they should talk to Hussain Nawaz as he watches over the foreign affairs.
NAB also tried to seek the source of $15.52 million loan shown for Sugar Mills. To which, Nawaz Sharif expressed that he has no knowledge about it as he does not hold any record at the present.
