Islamabad: The investigation report of National Accountability Bureau (NAB) regarding Tosha Khana has come out, in which it has been revealed that the system of checking the exact value of priceless gifts does not exist in Pakistan.

According to the details, the NAB has filed a Tosha Khana reference against Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaaf (PTI) founder Imran Khan and his wife Bushra Bibi.

According to the NAB report, the price of the gist worth Rs3.16 billion was estimated at Rs18 million in Pakistan, half of which was kept by former Prime Minister Imran Khan and Bushra Bibi by paying Rs9 million.

It has been stated in the report that not a single institution in Pakistan could know the value of the graph jewelry set found with the Saudi prince. After making an estimate from Dubai, it was found that the treasury suffered a loss of Rs1.5737 billion.

The report said that FBR and the committee of the Collectorate of Customs showed inability to fix the price. The Industries and Production Division was also contacted who said that the Gems and jewelry Development Company was inactive.

According to the report, Gems and jewelry Traders Association also could not estimate the price. Pakistan Mineral Development Corporation also said that they could not tell the price.
