Accountability laws
July 10, 2021
A few days ago, the Lahore High Court (LHC) issued its verdict on the bail application of PML-N leader Khawaja Asif. Later, the Islamabad High Court (IHC) announced its judgment in the Narowal Sports City Complex case against another PML-N leader, Ahsan Iqbal. The two courts have said that the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) is guilty of violating its powers. In the past too, we have had several court decisions that condemned NAB actions.
There is a dire need to reform NAB. The institution shouldn’t be allowed to arrest politicians without solid evidence or put them in jails for an indefinite period. Such tactics carry no gain for the country and its people. The ruling party, in consultation with the opposition, needs to work on the much-needed amendments in the NAB law.
