Islamabad: The Supreme Court (SC) Thursday approved bail plea of Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) leader Khurshid Shah in a case pertaining to accumulation of assets beyond known sources of income, after two years.
According to details, a two-member bench headed by Justice Umar Ata Bandial heard the petition and directed to release the PPP leader from the jail over bail bonds worth Rs1 crore.
However, the SC has ordered him to submit a bond of Rs 10 million.
The apex court, while granting bail, said that Khurshid Shah's name would remain in the ECL and if he wanted to go abroad, he would be needed to approach the accountability court.
It is pertinent to mention here that, the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) had arrested PPP leader on September 18, 2019 in an assets beyond means case.
The Veteran PPP leader is accused of transferring an amenity plot in the Sukkur Cooperative Society under his name to build a bungalow, besides owning hotels, filling stations and bungalows registered under the names of his front men.
