ISLAMABAD: Resuming its investigation into the Sharif family’s business dealings abroad, the Panamagate joint investigation team (JIT) on Thursday recorded a statement from retired Lt Gen Amjad Naqvi, who had headed the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) at the time an investigation was first opened into the Hudaibya Paper Mills case.
Sources privy to the information said that the ex-NAB chairman answered the JIT’s questions for nearly an hour and discussed the details of the Hudaibya investigation conducted by NAB.
The sources further said that Naqvi also provided the JIT documents from the investigation. A day earlier, the JIT had also examined the record received from Habib Bank and the Federal Board of Revenue (FBR). Habib Bank had provided records related to loans which the Sharif family had procured for Hudaibya Paper Mills, while the FBR had provided the team wealth statements and tax-related details of Sharif family members.
