PPP leader Khursheed Shah shifted to jail from hospital
Karachi (Dunya News) - Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) leader Khursheed Shah was shifted from NICVD Hospital to Central Jail, by ambulance.
PPP leader was arrested by the NAB from Islamabad two years ago on September 18. Few days after his arrest, he was shifted to a cardiac hospital where he remained under treatment.
However, he had approached the Sindh High Court (SHC) for bail, but the court rejected Shah s plea as he was not in jail.
On the other hand, the petition of PTI leader Tahir Shah against keeping Khursheed Shah in hospital was also being heard in the Sindh High Court.
Khursheed Shah decided to move back to jail so that he could be granted bail as he had approached the Supreme Court for his bail.
It should be noted that a reference of Rs 1.23 billion against 18 persons including Khursheed Shah, his sons, son-in-law Owais Shah was being heard in Sukkur Accountability Court and his eldest son Farrukh Shah is already in jail.
