ISLAMABAD: The National Accountability Bureau (NAB) on Wednesday filed a petition in the Islamabad High Court on Wednesday seeking an early disposal of NAB’s appeal against acquittal of former finance minister Shaukat Tarin in the Rental Power Projects (RPPs) case.
An Accountability Court of Islamabad in January 2020 acquitted former prime minister Raja Pervaiz Ashraf, former finance minister Shaukat Tarin, some former bureaucrats and directors of a power holding company in the Sahiwal Rental Power Projects case.
Mr Tarin has recently been picked as a member of the Economic Advisory Council (EAC), headed by Prime Minister Imran Khan.
