The National Accountability Bureau’s (NAB) Karachi office has requested to file a reference against former finance minister Abdul Hafeez, a spokesperson for the anti-graft watchdog said Monday.
The spokesperson said NAB Karachi’s Regional Board meeting has sent requests to the central office for filing two references and decided to start proceedings in several cases.
Hafeez Shaikh — who left the ministry a few months back — and two former chairmen of the Federal Board of Revenue (FBR), Abdullah Yousuf and Salman Siqqiuqe, have incurred losses worth $11 million to the national exchequer, the spokesperson said.
