KARACHI:
A two-member bench of the Sindh High Court, comprising Justice Muhammad Iqbal Kalhoro and Justice Shamsuddin Abbasi, directed the National Accountability Bureau on Wednesday to submit before the court its investigation rules.
The court was hearing a plea seeking the formulation of rules defining the procedure for inquiries and investigations of the national anti-graft watchdog.
The petitioner, advocate Tariq Mansoor, contended in the plea that NAB had been functioning without rules for years now. He maintained that it is compulsory for the bureau to have rules for its inquiries under section 34 of the National Accountability Bureau Ordinance.
