Shehbaz Sharif stated in his plea that the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) froze his family’s properties in utter disregard for the actual facts as assets can not be frozen at a time when the investigation process is still underway.
He requested the accountability court to review its verdict of allowing the national graft buster to freeze the assets.
Last year on Dec 11, the accountability court had ordered authorities to freeze properties of the PML-N president and his family.
