Former prime minister and Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) stalwart Shahid Khaqan Abbasi took shots against the sitting government, the sugar producers, and the National Command and Operation Centre (NCOC), calling for their arrests and shutdowns. Speaking to the media outside an accountability court in the federal capital, the former premier said that PM Imran, along with 40 per cent of the sugar producers in the country, should be placed in jail. Earlier, the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) on Thursday summoned former prime minister Abbasi for questioning in connection with its fresh graft inquiry against him. The PML-N stalwart is required to turn up before the NAB Rawalpindi office on April 26 along with the record. The inquiry pertains to alleged financial irregularities in Pakistan Petroleum Limited (PPL) and the illegal appointment of Syed Wamiq Bokhari as its managing director.
