NAB to focus on the ‘big fish’
The bureau said the corruption was enabled by the submission of defective documents for lending and issuing payments to people who did not even apply for loans nor signed loan case documents.
Moreover, accused Zulqarnain Chaudhry made payments of loans in the name of borrowers who died before receiving any loan payments, whereas, the payments were also made to individuals in some cases where mobile credit officers (MCOs) did not recommend the loan case.
NAB disclosed that the accused former manager exceeded his financial sanctioning and administrative powers as described in relevant laws, rules and embezzled government funds.
