IHC to hear Dar’s petitions against accountability court for declaring him proclaimed offender today

F.P. Report

ISLAMABAD: Former Finance Minister Ishaq Dar filed a petition in Islamabad High Court (IHC) against the accountability court for declaring him a proclaimed offender and issuance of non-bailable arrest warrants for him.

Earlier, on November 14 the accountability court issued non-bailable arrest warrants for Dar and on Nov 21, the court declared him an absconder and also warned his guarantor, Ahmed Ali Qadoosi, that if he Dar failed to appear before the court then his surety bonds worth Rs5 million would be confiscated.

Later on December 14, the accountability court declared Dar a proclaimed offender and asked a report on properties from the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) regarding the assets and properties of Dar’s guarantor.

Former finance minister had subsequently moved the IHC against the issuance of non-bailable arrest warrants for him and an order declaring him a proclaimed offender.

Earlier on Tuesday, the IHC granted a 24-hour stay on the accountability court’s judgment about confiscation of property of Dar’s guarantor.
