NAB court has ordered to seize all the properties of the ex-secretary.
QUETTA (Dunya News) – Accountability court on Tuesday has sentenced former finance secretary Mushtaq Raisani to 10 years in prison in mega corruption case.
While announcing the verdict, the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) court has ordered to seize all the properties of the ex-secretary.
Meanwhile, former finance advisor Balochistan Khalid Lango has been sent to jail for two years and two months while ex-secretary for local bodies Abdul Basit and former local council secretary have been acquitted in the case.
Mushtaq Ahmed Raisani, the then finance secretary of Balochistan, hit the headlines in May 2016 when NAB seized over Rs 730 million hard cash from his house in Quetta hours after he was taken into custody.
The development occurred despite the fact that Raisani was successful in striking a plea bargain. NAB official, Qamar Zaman Chaudhry, had referred to it as the highest ever plea bargain.
