    Let NAB investigate how Arsalan got this kick-back or bribe or black mail? This may be a case of ‘whistle blower’ of a bullying ‘high-up’ and got trapped by an intelligent and influential entrepreneur. Time for NAB to show its guts.

    Let us hope the NAB does not play the same role as LHC or PCO SC. Finally it is time to root out the corruption from everywhere in an even handed manner.
