An accountability court on Monday extended the physical remand of Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) senior leader Faryal Talpur’s for another 14 days. The sister of former president Asif Ali Zardari is one of the prime accused in the fake accounts case and will be presented before an accountability court on July 22. The National Accountability Bureau (NAB), while requesting an extension in the remand of the PPP leader, stated in court that she had attended a recent Sindh Assembly session. Faryal was arrested by the accountability watchdog a day after her brother was arrested in the fake accounts case after the Islamabad High Court rejected their bails.
