NAB writes letter to UK govt for handing over Salman Shehbaz

ISLAMABAD: The National Accountability Bureau (NAB) has written a letter to the United Kingdom (UK) government to hand over Salman Shehbaz, who is wanted by the accountability watchdog under money laundering charges and TT scandal.

According to sources privy to the development, the application to handover Salman Shehbaz has been submitted to the UK government on December 31. Salman Shehbaz is already being declared an absconder by a court in Pakistan.

Previously, the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) decided to approach Interpol to bring back Salman Shhebaz to the country to face corruption cases.

The NAB requested the court to declare the accused as an absconder due to his consistent absence from court proceedings.

Back in 2019, the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) had seized his property over his no-show despite repeated summons in a money laundering case.
