The court summoned the accused persons on November 20 for their indictment in the cases.

Earlier on September 24, a banking court had issued non-bailable arrest warrants to the accused of not complying with the orders in cases against them for allegedly defaulting on bank loans.

In August, a banking court had expressed resentment over the cousins of former prime minister Nawaz Sharif for failing to appear in the hearings of the cases against them.
