ISLAMABAD: A senior retired bureaucrat and an-ex revenue official have turned out to be lucky detainees of the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) having got bail just one month after their arrest in a case involving the aborted transfer of a piece of land to a company owned by Asif Ali Zardari and his son Bilawal Bhutto Zardari. The Islamabad High Court (IHC) has granted post-arrest bail to former members of the Capital Development Authority (CDA) (2010 to 2012) and ex-interior secretary Mian Waheeduddin and former deputy Tehsildar Malik Iqbal.
They were taken into custody by NAB on June 12 and were given bail on July 14 by a two-member bench headed by Justice Mohsin Akhtar Kayani and comprising Justice Babar Sattar. The judgment has gone unnoticed, unreported.
