F.P. Report
ISLAMABAD: The accountability court reserved its decision against the Finance Minister Ishaq Dar on the request of defense appeal to excuse the minister from appearance in court on medical grounds.
Dar’s counsel submitted the Ishaq Dar third medical report and requested the judge to grant his client exemption from appearance in the corruption cases.
As per the medical report of Dar, it states that one of Dar’s arteries is not functioning properly and the minister will have another medical checkup on November 29.
National Accountability Bureau (NAB) prosecutor Imran Shafique opposed the plea and requested the court to begin the procedure of declaring Dar a proclaimed offender due to his continuous absence.
The judge then reserved his decision on the defense’s plea and will announce it shortly.
