According to the National Accountability Bureau’s (NAB) report on kickbacks allegedly received by Bhatti, Elahi and Moonis Elahi, Elahi’s son, the ex-principal secretary, in connivance with other suspects in the case, got illegal development schemes approved, and in order to receive commission got contracts for these schemes awarded to his favourites.
