Finance Minister Ishaq Dar has decided to extend his stay in London after National Accountability Bureau (NAB) filed an appeal against Lahore High Court verdict in the Hudaibiya Paper Mills case, reported a private news channel quoting sources.
According to informed sources, his decision to extend his stay was not conditioned with the bail against his arrest warrants, which were issued on Wednesday after he failed to turn up before the court.
Sources further said that finance minister would weigh up hearing of Hudaibiya Paper Mills case in Supreme Court before making any decision with regard to getting back to Pakistan. Names of Ali Jahangir, Sartaj Aziz and Miftah Ismail were being contemplated for new finance minister, sources further said.
Talking to a private TV channel, Awami Muslim League (AML) Chief Sheikh Rasheed said that Ishaq Dar should immediately resign if having a speck of morality left in him.
