ISLAMABAD:

The National Accountability Bureau (NAB) has arrested Malik Irshad Ahmad, a sub-divisional officer at the Punjab Irrigation Department for his alleged involvement in corruption by accumulation of assets disproportionate to his declared sources of income.      

The accused is in possession of movable and immovable assets worth of Rs67 million, said a NAB official.

The accused started his career as a low-grade employee in the irrigation department and has made assets worth of millions.

He was allegedly involved in corruption by cheating the public.

The accused dishonestly and fraudulently collected Rs85 million from the
