NAB carrying out investigations against corrupts without political influence: Shafqat
ISLAMABAD, May 10 (APP):Minister for Education, Professional Training and National Heritage Shafqat Mahmood Sunday said the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) being an independent institution was effectively working to eradicate corruption from the society without political influence .
NAB was carrying out investigation of corruption cases against the bigwigs of the opposition parties including Pakistan Peoples’ Party and Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz, he said talking to a private news channel.
The minister said there was no draft under consideration to make amendment in NAB laws to bring transparency in its system.
He said the government was not registering the cases against anybody and it was also not using power to give relaxation to corrupts and plunderers.
He said the previous governments of PPP and PML-N had looted the national exchequer ruthlessly. The Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) government was committed with its promise from day first to wipe out the menace of corruption from the country, he added.
