National Accountability Bureau has summoned former PM Shahid Khaqan Abbasi in an illegal appointment case on September 30 to its Headquarters in Rawalpindi.

The PML-N leader will record his statement in an inquiry about the appointment of Khalid Sajid Khokhar as managing director of the Mineral Development Corporation.

NAB has accused Khokhar of owning more assets than known sources of income. They have been investigating Abbasi in the LNG terminal and PSO MD appointment cases also.
