LAHORE (Dunya News) - The National Accountability Bureau (NAB) has given a clean chit to caretaker prime minister’s adviser Ahad Khan Cheema in the reference of assets beyond means on Monday.
According to a report submitted by NAB, all the assets of Ahad Cheema match with his income and therefore, it doesn’t require any reference against him.
The report says all the alleged ‘benamidars’ (individuals holding property on behalf of others) of Ahad Cheema made the properties from their personal income and it cannot be linked with Cheema.
The report claims that the accounts of Ahad Cheema’s relatives including Sadia Mansoor, Mansoor Ahmed and Nazia Ashraf are not ‘benami’ accounts of Cheema.
Ahad Cheema’s total income is Rs213 million while his expenses are Rs131 million, the investigation reveals.

The NAB made an appeal to the accountability court to decide on Ahad Cheema’s acquittal plea as per the law.
