Summary NAB chairman has expressed his reservations over judicial proceedings.


ISLAMABAD: National Accountability Bureau (NAB) chairman Fasih Bokhari has forwarded his resignation to President Zardari, Dunya News sources reported.

 

Expressing reservations over the role of the Supreme Court, NAB chairman said he would resign if his concerns were not addressed.

 

The statement was made in a letter, earlier sent to President Zardari.

 

He said that pressure was built up on NAB by giving verbal orders and contempt notices, adding that the apex court didn’t even provide sufficient time to implement its orders.

 

Fasih Bokhari further said that he cannot ensure impartiality under this constant pressure from the Supreme Court.

 

He objected to the judicial proceedings into Kamran Faisal and tax defaulters’ case while in Ogra case, he termed the orders to file references against politicians as an act of pre-poll rigging.
